This one originally came from the cookbook that came with my microwave. Very easy, tasty, and good for using ingredients on hand. I've also made it in the oven, and made it ahead to freeze and cook later. Cook time includes prep time.
Mix together margarine, onion, (I use dehydrated since my family doesn't like a lot of onion, and to make things easier.) and lemon juice.
(The original recipe also calls for 1 4 oz can of mushrooms, which we don't like.) Microwave this in a 2 qt dish on high until margarine is melted and onions are soft.
Stir in flour, salt, paprika and nutmeg, until smooth.
Microwave 1 minutes on high.
Stir well.
Gradually stir in broth.
Microwave on High 8-10 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes, until thickened.
