I know that some of you make your own cream of mushroom soupdoes anyone have a recipe to share? I think that I can just sub the flour for GF flour and it should turn out the same.

Someone just posted some and I can't remember where!!

I say skip the flour at all. Save yourself some carbs and toss in a block of cream cheese instead LOL.

ETA: HERE IT IS !

Look for a recipe that is REAL (dairy) Cream of mushroom, and if it calls for any flour just use a little bit of cornstarch to thicken it.
I would find mine, but we are off to church in just a bit.
I can get it to you tonight if need be.

ETA:
We use this one often.

A recipe I have used starts with a cup of cottage cheese and a cup of milk whirled in the blender. For mushroom soup the instructions were to saute some onions and mushrooms; add some chicken or veggie stock, the cottage cheese mixture, and season as desired. I would put at least half of the sauteed mushrooms through the blender with the cottage cheese, though the recipe didn't specify this. You can use the cottage cheese base for just about any cream soup.

Another one, which I could make again now that I am no longer scared of fat :lol: - Mushrooms, as many as you like, sliced. Saute about half of them with some onion and garlic. Put the raw mushrooms plus some half and half in the blender, and blend till smooth. Add this to to the cooked mushrooms, and cook till heated through. Season as desired. The raw mushrooms make this incredibly *mushroomy*, but no one will know if you don't tell them :D. A friend of mine once made this for me, thanking me all the while for having given her the recipe years before. I hadn't :D, must have been someone else, but now I thank her when I make it - which I haven't done for these last ages; thank you for reminding me :D

Dace, I've been using a combo of the cream of X soup (nix the flour, so its basically just mushroom broth based soup) then I use an equal amount of milk or cream and rub in a handful of dried mushrooms and a tiny touch of cornstarch, maybe a teaspoon. The mushrooms almost powder between your hands when they are good & dry and it thickens up the soup quite nicely.

They make mighty fine gravy, too :drool

I decided to use BubblingBrooks recipe....it has milk and sour cream in it :drool. BUT....I am using it with a pot roast that will be in the oven for 3 hours, I am afraid that the sour cream will get icky.

I am thinking I should skip the SC and add cream cheese instead. Any ideas?

Proceed with all of the c of m soup recipe except the dairy. Add that when you are ready to turn off the heat....just heat it through, and serve. That is what I do, even with milk/cream.
