The famous name brands cream of mushroom soups, I looked at, is loaded with sodium anywhere from 410 – 870 mg per 1/2 cup. And since most recipes call for an entire can you could be adding up to 4350 mg. of sodium to a recipe from just one can!! Sometimes you just have to shake your head as you wonder why there is so much sodium in our canned foods.

TIPS FOR MAKING YOUR MUSHROOM SOUP

There are so many ways beyond this basic recipe to make your Low Sodium Cream of Mushroom soup. One is you use sliced or pre-sliced mushrooms. I prefer mine in smaller diced pieces. Or you could dice up some onion along with pre-minced garlic to replace the onion and garlic powder. If you’re making a plain mushroom soup I would do this. You can also add more mushrooms if you prefer.

Sometimes when I make this I’ll make a larger batch when I know I will be making a few meals in the future. I then pour it into a large muffin tin and then freeze it. When frozen simply pop them out and put them into a Ziploc bag and put them back in the freezer.

Then you can put it in a pot on low and unfreeze and warm it up. It may separate a little, but just stir it back up a bit and walah! You can then use it as a soup or incorporate into another dish.
