I have made cream of something soup base and like using it. Thanks for sharing this dish.
I think it tastes so much better than the canned version!
Loved the recipe! The only recommendation is to add salsa to the ingredient list. Luckily I always have some on hand, but I would have used a more fresher version had I known. Thanks for sharing, I am excited for more!
Thank you for letting me know so I can get that added to the ingredients list!!
