It is true that if you find one of us in a Dr's office...it's serious. While we do support and are grateful for the medical world, we are big proponents of holistic medicine and doing that as naturally as we can, as often as we can.
It is true that we don't fry much around here. Too much fried food makes too much us and a sluggish heart...neither of which is appealing.
It is true that we love simple and natural....but let's be honest....you get in the way of my sour cream and cheddar chips and there is going to be trouble!! And it goes the same for my Reese Cups!!!
Truthfully we love moderation. Simply enjoy the good God has given and all things in moderation as long as it doesn't cause my brother to stumble.
Today as I was planning supper, I realized I was out of my Cream of Soup Mix. One of the many things I make from scratch is our cream of soup mixes. Way cheaper and so much better for you!! It tastes so good and is so quick to put together!!
In less than 10 minutes I was able to mix up a batch of Cream of Soup Mix that is the equivalent of 18 cans of soup...at a MUCH cheaper price.
It is so nice to just pull a few ingredients out of the pantry and mix together what you need instead of jumping in the car to run to the store because you're out of soup!!
Below you'll find the recipe I use....again, wish I could remember where I pulled this up from, but I can't. If you don't write it down right away.............
Cream of Anything Soup Mix
4 Cups Powdered Milk
1 1/2 Cups Cornstarch
1/2 Cup Instant Bouillon Granules
4 tsp Dried Onion Flakes
2 tsp Thyme
2 tsp Basil
1 tsp Freshly Grated Black Pepper
Mix together well. Equivalent of 18 cans of soup.
To make Soup:
1/3 Cup Mix
1 Cup Water
1 TBSP Butter
Mix gently in medium saucepan on low heat until thick. Add 1/2 cup minced or chopped whatever you'd like to make your soup. (chicken, celery, mushrooms, etc.)
Give this a try and let me know what you think!!
