More soups, stews, chili and more
Cream of Whatever SoupQuick thought: Add equal amounts of butter and flour to a skillet or saucepan. Stir until smooth low-medium heat. Add desired seasoning and things like finely chopped mushrooms, green onions, celery salt, etc. for a homemade cream of whatever soup. Add milk to make a sauce or gravy, or roux. Add a little cheese if desired. Add additional milk if it becomes too thick. If too thin cook a little longer or add more flour dissolved in milk.
