Y'all, this is a really great alternative to using a canned soup. What I like about it is that I can control the ingredients that are in it and the salt level. So if you like clean eats while enjoying homestyle comforts, take on this homemade Cream of Chicken Soup.
My favorite recipe to use this for is my Creamy Chicken Enchilada Casserole with Mexican Street Corn Topper. It brings the whole dish together and helps me keep it on the cleaner side for my family. I strive to cook with whole ingredients as much as possible, so even though this adds a bit of an extra step, it is worth it in the end!
Now I won't go on and on about this recipe, we all know what it is and what it does. I am just sharing it here because it is a really great staple ingredient to keep in your pantry and making it at home gives me the control I desire. The best tip I can give you on it is to use my secret weapon for flavor boosting, roasted garlic powder.
