How did I forget about Cream of Chicken Soup??!! I LOVED this as a kid. The dairy-free and gluten-free options in this recipe (and the simplicity) bring this recipe back home!!
LOVE that you made a gluten free version of this! I used to be obsessed as a kid and I can’t wait to make this.
Hi- I’m wondering if I can use almond flour or rice flour instead of the all purpose gluten free. I’m making for a friend. Thank you!
We personally have not tried it, but we hear rice flour is great for thickening soups!
Do you have a specific all purpose seasoning blend you prefer? Thank you!
We like to use any type, really! The kind we have is by the brand Simply Organic.
