JMLow fat cream of-- soup recipes?
just use skim or 2 % milk
cooks.com
Try cooks.com and fatfree.com. Also, to lighten up the fat content of cream soups, you can substitute milk, and then use a thickening agent...like a roux (flour mixed with water first and then added to soups and sauces) or dissolve a bit of cornstarch in water and then add to your soup to thicken it. That way you are just modifying your own recipes.
Bon Appetit!
Roxie, if you go to www.foodchannel.com
you will see a search box. Type in low fat cream of xxxxx
with xxxx being what you want to be in the soup, such as mushroom or chicken, you will be given choices.
You can make any cream of recipe low fat by substituting margarine for butter, milk for cream, etc. Sub yogurt for sour cream, or use low fat sour cream. Sour cream has zillions of calories.
Bon appetite
