Gluten Free Cream of Chicken Soup

While Progresso makes a creamy gluten free mushroom soup, they do not make a gluten free cream of chicken soup. With that said and a recent request from a Facebook follower, I thought you would appreciate this recipe. Make it super rich using cream, dairy-free with your choice of milk, or with any fat content of cow’s milk. Enjoy!
