Easy and Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup

A few weeks ago I shared the yummy Crockpot Salsa Chicken dish I made. I mentioned that I made my own Cream of Chicken soup to use instead of using that crap in a can. I really am trying to be better about eating better. Not only have I added a lot more veggies and lean meats to diet, but I’m trying really hard to be aware of what the things I’m eating are made from. I’m not perfect, but I’m trying. So, when I looked at the back of the can of condensed cream of chicken soup and saw all the sodium and ingredients I couldn’t pronounce, I said no thanks. I called my Dad, who is a great cook and runs a restaurant and asked him how to make my own. Below is what I used!

Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons flour
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup chicken stock

Steps

1. Melt butter in sauce pan over medium heat, slowly add the flour and mix together.
2. Slowly add in the chicken stock and mix it all nicely
3. Then add the milk, slowly
4. Stir until thickened

This made just enough to replace the yucky canned stuff!
