A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

ingredients
1 egg
2/3 cup milk
3 tablespoons sugar
1 cup flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
directions
Beat egg, milk and sugar until well mixed.
In separate bowl, mix flour, salt and baking powder; add to egg/milk mixture.
Beat batter with a whisk until smooth. The batter should be thin enough to easily pour through small funnel - if it's too thick, add a bit more milk.
Heat oil to 375 degrees F.
Holding finger over end of funnel, fill with the funnel with about 3/4 cup batter. Remove finger and let batter flow into hot oil, overlapping or spiraling the batter. Use remaining batter; flip cake to opposite side when golden brown (about 1-2 minutes).
cook's notes
We found that funnels can vary greatly in size - if you have one with a 1/2-inch opening - but no smaller than 5/8-inch, you'll have the most success. We tried both smaller and larger ones and ended up with very differing cakes.
Too small and the batter drops into tidbits in the oil, not forming a cake; too large and the batter forms one big cake that is hard to cook and soggy.

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.
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.

This was so easy and affordable to make. My kids and I had a so much fun doing this on a rainy day. Great breakfast ideas! We put peaches, blueberries and apples on it. You can add your favorite fruit for a whole different flavor.
