This was SO FAST AND EASY! I used half cream and half water in place of the milk, and tapioca starch. I haven't used it in the recipe yet, but I tasted it, and the taste and texture are quite similar to the stuff that comes out of those cans.

My wife is on a gluten free diet and it is difficult to find "cream of" most any kind of soup without wheat in it. I did some searching and this recipe is better than any canned we have ever used. We made it without the chicken chunks and it was great. The next time, we'll put chicken in it!!

Very happy with the results. I am glad to find a substitute for cream of chicken soup since I can't have dairy.

Living in Beijing, it's hard to find these soups. This is the perfect recipe for the perfect amount. I just needed one can & this fit the bill. I did omit the chicken & butter since I was using this in a dish already with lots of chicken in it. Thanks!
