Cream of Whatever Soup Mix

This mix is a great stand-in for canned cream soups in recipes. I've never added any of the flavor ingredients or tried eating it as soup, but I'm sure it would taste great.

2 cups powdered milk
3/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup instant chicken bullion
2 tbl. dried onion flakes
1 tsp. basil leaves
1 tsp. thyme leaves
pepper

Combine ingredients, stirring until evenly distributed.

To substitute for 1 can of condensed cream soup, combine 1/3 cup dry mix with 1 1/4 cups cold water. Add your chosen flavor. Heat and stir until thickened. Use as you would the canned product.

Makes the equivalent of 9 cans of soup.

FLAVORS:
Mushroom: 1/2 cup chopped mushroom
Celery: 1/2 cup minced sauteed celery
Potato: 1 cup cooked, diced potatoes
Chicken: 1/2 cup cooked chicken
Vegetable: 3/4 cup cooked vegetables
Broccoli: 1 cup cooked chopped broccoli
