Do I need to double all ingredients or just the green beans?

Thank you for not using canned soups. This way i can use this recipe in Germany too. – We dont have those canned soups used in so many recipes.

I make my own “cream of” soups! It’s basically chicken broth, milk and a bit of flour! Google for an easy recipe and it keeps in mason jars in fridge and freezer! Never have to buy it again! And it’s healthier!

This recipe calls for corn starch which is not in the listed ingredients.

Does this have to be served right away or can I pop it in the oven and warm it a couple hours later?
