  1. I made this and it was AMAZING!! I made it a second time and doubled it, and it was just as amazing. I added it to casseroles, and ate leftovers with some crackers as a lunch. YUM!

  2. Hi. I was making your Chicken and Rice freezer meal and ran out of canned soup. I made your homemade cream of Mushroom soup as directed to use instead of using canned Cream of mushroom soup. This is delicious but it is much thinner, more liquidish, than is condensed soup out of the can. I am supposed to use this as made in the recipe or continue to simmer till it is a thick as soup in the can?

    1. If you let it simmer longer then it will thicken. (If you let it sit awhile it will also thicken). If you are using it in a recipe I wouldn’t worry about it too much though as it’s going to thicken while it’s cooking.
