Cream of Anything Soup Mix

3/4 C Corn Starch
1/4 C Chicken Bullion Granules
2 TBS Onion Flakes (dry)
1 tsp Basil
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Pepper
2 TBS dry celery flakes (optional)

Mix everything together and store in a airtight, dry container.

To use: Shake mix well, then combine 1/3 cup mix with 1 1/4 C cool tap water.
Stir and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil for 1 full minute.
Remove from heat and use in any recipe calling for 1 can "Cream Of" soup.
