It wasn’t until I started looking for a healthier, dairy free and preferably animal free alternative that I realized how much we used it. If you love canned cream of chicken soup, then you are sure to want this recipe. I guarantee it will be one of the ones you add to your “go to list” and keep in an easy access location.
