Notes

*If the soup does not thicken to your liking, prepare a roux. In a separate pan, melt ¼ cup of butter and whisk in ¼ cup of flour.  Add 1 cup of soup.  Then 3 more cups.  Stir until thickened.  Add the mixture back into the pot of soup and incorporate. *You can transfer the soup to a slow cooker to keep warm if you will be serving the soup later.
