Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I used leftover corned beef from st patricks day instead of the canned stuff. It was really great - we had it as a snack while watching a movie on family night. If you wanted to serve it for a St Patrick's day party you could sub the mustard, mayo and w-sauce for thousand island dressing and use swiss cheese, and sub sauerkraut for the onion. Yumm I might have to make more corned beef just so I can try that!
