Ingredients:

No Canned Cream Soup Soup: (use this in place of canned soups – add mushrooms, onions, etc. as desired to make different flavor soups)

• 4 tablespoons butter
• 6 tablespoons flour
• 1 cup chicken stock
• 1 cup heavy cream or 1/2 and 1/2
• salt and pepper

Directions:

1. In a saucepan over medium-low heat melt the butter. Slowly whisk in the flour until it become thick.  Cook for 1-2 minutes.
2. Slowly whisk in the chicken stock and then the heavy cream. Allow to cook until it becomes thick like gravy. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs. pork chops (not smoked)
• 1 packet of Ranch salad dressing (or spices equivalent)
