If you like a boost of mushroom flavor saute about 10 medium to large fresh mushrooms, sliced in with the butter then add the flour and remaining ingredients, you an also mix in 1/2 to 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup towards the end of cooking and simmer/cook 3 minutes more. Amounts listed without any additions yield about 3 cups"
