substitute for "cream of" soups?

I want to make either cheesy broccoli and chicken soup or a casserole but all the recipes call for "cream of" soups. What can I use instead? Chicken stock and milk? Flour?

1. 2 T butter 2 T flour 1 cup chicken broth or milk taste for seasonings Melt butter over low heat ..stir flour..slowly stir in chicken broth or milk...cook until thickened
2. You can use a white sauce. It can be very versatile. There are many different variations. Here's one that is very basic. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/White-Sauce/Detail.aspx
3. you can also use veggie stock instead of chicken stock in the above recipe for a healthier vegetarian option. It tastes the same, just less greasy.
