Easy homemade condensed cream of mushroom soup recipe. Ditch the can and try this alternative to any casserole dish.
If you’re anything like me, your diet has changed as we’ve gotten older. Things we use to buy out of convince we now question what the heck is in them? If I can’t say an ingredient does it really belong in my food?
Hhmm, probably not.
But you’re busy! and want a fast meal. At least you’re throwing it together yourself, right?
Plus… you can’t make condensed cream of mushroom soup. That comes in a can and sounds complicated and time consuming.
SAVE FOR LATER!
Well thank goodness its not!
My husbands favorite comfort food is Tater Tot Casserole. However, it went out of rotation when I stopped cooking meat. It was tragic for him but being the supportive guy he is, he politely ate whatever I put in front of him. Awww… right?
One year later and instead of ditching everything, we buy organic when we can and I’ve taken on the task of learning to make things from scratch.
Bringing Tater Tot Casserole back in rotation meant fresh green beans and ditching the condensed soup cans.
