Suggestions & Substitutions
Try serving this with hot noodles tossed with margarine and parsley.
Baby-cut carrots are a great substitute for the carrots. If you're feeling adventurous, try parsnips or multi-color carrots.
Cream of chicken or cream of onion soup makes a delicious substitute for the cream of mushroom soup.
For mushroom lovers, try adding a jar of mushroom pieces and stems, drained.
If sugar is a concern, use Diet Pepsi instead of regular.
If you don't have fresh garlic, use 1/8 tablespoon of garlic powder instead of the clove.
