Another idea


I've heard of this--why I never tried it before is beyond me. It is sooooo easy and will definitely cut costs! Make your own "Cream of Whatever" soup!! That stuff is up over $1 a can--even for the generic versions! I found this recipe online and I had all the ingredients on hand. This will save me a ton!!

So here is the recipe...(I tripled it and would have made more but I ran out of the ingredients.)

1 cup nonfat dried milk
3/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup bouillon (crushed, if necessary)
4 TBSP dried, minced onions
1 tsp. basil
1 tsp. thyme
1 tsp. pepper

Mix it all up in a canister and store in a cool, dry place.

For the equivalent of 1 can of "Cream of" condensed soup, mix 1/3 cup dry mix with 1 1/4 cup water. Cook until thick.

Easy peasy.
