Campbell's Soup Recipe

Campbell's Soup Can recipes were popular when I was growing up, often used as a creamy base. It's a comfort food that's fast, flavorful and convenient. Many Seafood Lasagna recipes are made with a white sauce or béchamel sauce. The mushroom soup base is a tasty and easy replacement for the Alfredo.
