I was lucky enough to come across a great recipe for another canned classic today. I am sure that many of you are familiar with many of Campbell’s great Cream of recipes. These recipes focus around Campbell’s Cream of chicken, mushroom or celery soup. I have always enjoyed making these but since one of the main ingredients is in a can and consequently has many preservatives and things that are not candida diet or allergy friendly I had blocked these recipes from my mind. Today I was luck enough to come across a recipe for Homemade Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup by Tammy on Tammy’s Recipes. I chose this recipe to adapt because it did not have a ton of ingredients as many others I found on the Internet did. I made appropriate candida diet substitutions and the result was nothing short of a miracle. I stood in awe as I looked at the final product. I had created yeast free, allergy free cream of chicken soup in about 10 minutes in my kitchen. I will be making a chicken and rice bake with the soup tonight. I am so excited and I froze the leftovers easy use later!
Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup Ingredients
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh parsley finely chopped
1 1/2 cups soy milk (I used unsweetened rice milk because of my children’s allergies)
3/4 brown rice flour
Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup Directions
In medium-sized saucepan bring chicken broth, milk, seasonings to a boil
Add flour to the boiling mixture while stirring. Continue to stir the mixture until it thickens

Oh my gosh! I can’t even begin to tell you how incredibly excited I am about this recipe. I mean…we’re talking I haven’t been this excited about yeast-free cooking since I discovered the coconut macaroons!! One of my favorite (and my family’s favorite) recipes uses cream of chicken soup and I have not made it in a LONG time!! All of those stupid soups have yeast extract in them among a million other things that will probably kill us eventually. It’s a Creamy Italian Chicken (if you’re interested I can send you the recipe because it’s a super easy crock pot recipe) and now with this recipe, I can make it again!!

Hi Jamie,
LOL! I was just as excited and I am so glad that you share my enthusiasm. It seems like this recipe has opened up a whole new world of possibilities for the candida diet. I would love your Creamy Italian Chicken recipe. I love using my crock pot. It makes things so easy.

Thanks for sharing how you adapted this recipe! I keep meaning to experiment with brown rice flour…
Have a great day!

Hi Tammy,
I really appreciate you stopping by and commenting. Thanks for creating such a great recipe for me to adapt. I love your site and look forward to trying more of your recipes in the future. Brown rice flour is a staple in my yeast free gluten free kitchen. I have had great experiences with it and I hope that you do too. Have a wonderful weekend!
Best,
Tennille
Tennille,
What a breath of fresh air you are:) I am so thankful I stumbled across your site. I found out that I had severe candida last summer. I went through all the diet changes and thought I had beat it. I’ve finally admitted that I don’t know if it something you ever beat. I’ve been so depressed today and trying to be positive about this whole candida living. Thank you for your honesty and upbeatness (if that’s a word). I really needed some encouragement today:) I can’t wait to try out some of your recipes!

Hi Nicole,
Welcome to Yeast Free Living! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I agree with you that candida may not be something that you really ever beat, as it requires drastic lifestyle changes for an indefinite amount of time. It is also very easy for those of us that struggle with candida to relapse even after it seems to finally be under control. I have beeen struggling with candida for a quite a while and I have had many ups and downs.
I wish you the best of luck on your yeast free journey. I hope that the information and recipes that you find on Yeast Free Living are helpful.
Be well,
Tennille
Ah fab! Thanks for posting this. I found a recipe that uses 5 cans of condensed cream of chicken soup(yes 5!!!) and wondered if there were any easy, healthy homemade recipes. This seems perfect
Hi Cheryl,
I am glad that the recipe helped. I am using this one this week for my yeast free green bean casserole.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Be Well,
Tennille
