Introduction

I haven't tried this yet, but it's a homemade version of cream soup from ehow.com. I don't like using storebought cream soups b/c they almost always contain MSG in some form.

Ingredients

    3 tablespoons butter
    3 tablespoons flour
    1 cup milk

    Optional: 1/2-1 teaspoon of salt or poultry seasoning, 2-4 tablespoons sauteed mushrooms, sauteed celery or diced chicken.

Directions

Melt butter on low and stir in flour (add salt or poultry seasoning here too). Whisk in milk and heat over low heat 5-10 minutes or until thick. Do not boil. Stir in optional mushrooms, celery or chicken here.) Remove from heat and stand 10 minutes. This equals a can of condensed cream soup right out of the can, before adding water.
