Cream of Chicken soup substitute
1 ¾ cup cool water
5 TBS white bean flour (small white beans grinded in wheat grinder- on coarse setting)
Approx. 3 TBS Chicken-Like Seasoning or 1 ½ TBS Soup base… to taste
(I usually use a little of both until I reach the desired taste)

In a medium saucepan over medium high to high heat, bring all ingredients to a boil.  Mixture will be thick in 2 minutes.  Reduce heat and cook over medium for 2 more minutes- stirring constantly.  Remove from heat, ready to use.

This mixture can be refrigerated up to 1 week and used in place of canned soup.
