This basic soup mix is the perfect convenience food to have on hand. I no longer buy canned soups. I make up a batch and store it in a quart jar. The perfect Meal in a Jar (MIJ)! by Cindy Suelzle

Ingredients

  • 2 c. THRIVE Instant Milk
  • 1 c. THRIVE Sour Cream Powder
  • 1 tbsp. THRIVE Chefs Choice
  • 2 c. Cornstarch
  • 1/3 c. THRIVE Chicken Bouillon
  • 1/2 c. THRIVE Chopped Onions - FD
  • 1/2 tsp. Black Pepper

Directions

  1. The quantities for aprox 12 servings fills one quart and one pint.
  2. Sift together till completely mixed and store in a quart sealer. I never do, but if you want a smoother consistency, crush the FD onion.
  3. To prepare: whisk 1/2 c mix into 2 cups water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer 3-5 minutes till nicely thickened, stirring constantly to prevent lumping.
  4. Beautiful thick creamy white sauce. Adjust to preference. Use as soup base for Cream of Mushroom Soup, Cream of Chicken, Cream of Asparagus, Cream of Broccoli, ...whatever you like ......
  5. Simply add about 1/4 cup of the powder you find at the bottom of a can, or crush whatever you like. Add a little bit of bigger pieces for texture.
  6. I would expect a reasonable shelf life on your pantry shelf in a sealed jar to be about 6 months. Personally, I wouldn't want to go much beyond that. But since it's so easy to mix up and all the ingredients are standard in your pantry anyway - no problem.
