I would imagine you could use the bottled. I've never tried it but maybe next time I will. I can't think what to substitue with, sorry.

Please do not forget the drooling old man in the ruled trenchcoat outside your kitchen window.

Great for this time of the year.

Nice.
I think I'll add the soup, cream cheese and broth to my sauteed onions to melt it down before adding to the cooker. This is getting made as soon as I clear out some leftovers.

And it has a clove of garlic! It qualifies for the challenge!
:wink:
