Directions
Chicken Cordon Bleu Soup, I found this recipe somewhere on the internet and have had it for many years. The woman who posted this said that her son worked at the Diamond Run Golf Club I have no idea where that is and that when he made this, he couldn’t make enough of it. I have revised the recipe somewhat because the original post was for 20 servings, and had no herbs/spices listed. I have included seasonings that are ones that I have enjoyed in this easy soup., The heavy cream clogged my arteries just by reading the recipe, so I substituted a can 12 fl. oz 2% evaporated milk plus a little half and half for the cream. The taste was lovely – I especially liked the subtle anise flavor from the tarragon. As someone else reported, my soup was not very thick – could have been from using lower fat milk products! I, too, added sliced mushrooms. I sauteed all the veggies for a few minutes in some spray olive oil before adding the other stuff. Oh yes, used garlic salt not powder – a bit more than half a teaspoon. I think I would not miss the chicken if it were gone of course then it wouldn’t be “chicken” cordon Bleu, would it??!!This was a nice accompaniment to watching the Dallas-Lions game! Made for Lazyme’s football win., This is really good soup! I think the ham, cheese and spices added give this soup a wonderful flavor. I made it exactly as stated except I sauteed some sliced mushrooms I wanted to use up. Delicious! I will make again.
