Cream of Anything Soup Recipe is very simple to make, healthier and much better then any condensed cream of soup from a can.
I am not a fan of canned condensed cream of soup. It kinda really, grosses me out. It is so easy to make yourself! By changing the broth or bouillon flavor, you can make any flavor of cream of anything soup that you need for your recipe. No need to by canned condensed soup that is full of preservatives and very salty.
Check out my Pork Chops in Homemade Mushroom Gravy to see how I incorporate this homemade Cream of Anything Soup Recipe into that recipe to make the gravy.
I make Cream of Mushroom and Cream of Chicken quite a bit, along with Cream of Vegetable Soup quite often and then whisk in a cup of Pressure Cooker Bone Broth and use it in a recipe calling for Cream of Soup. It’s just that easy.
This Cream of Anything Soup Recipe is the basic recipe, so if you want a Cream of Mushroom Soup, just add chopped mushrooms, for Cream of Shrimp, add chopped shrimp and so on, plus a cup of Broth, and add to your recipe.

Do you have a recipe for cream of celery? I’m thinking to sub celery salt for the regular salt, and then add some additional celery seed (or chopped celery?) Thank you for this recipe and your help!
Jill Selkowitz says
Hi Elaine, just add celery. Take a look at my tuna noodle casserole as it explains the celery in more detail. Jill
Connie says
Thank you for this recipe, it looks and tastes just like the canned stuff!
Kay says
I’m confused as there are zero carbs??? How can that be with milk and cornstarch?? I hope this is true.

Love this recipe so much. It comes out perfect every time.
Boone says
The recipe says in makes 10 servings but it only made enough for about one person to eat. Maybe enough for 2 small children.
