Directions
This garlic soup is super quick comfort food. It is like a cream of chicken soup that will warm you up on a chilly day or when you aren’t feeling you best and brilliantly it takes very little time.
There are very few ingredients; garlic, butter, flour, milk and chicken stock. We have all of these in the cupboard at home, so this is going to be my go to soup when I am full of wintery colds, or maybe going to a mosquito infested zone. The garlic is powerful!
Thank you to Lavender & Macarons for the inspiration and simple recipe.
