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.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Italian sausage ?? Sacrilege!!! Used andouille to make it more cajun

I think I ate about half of the sweet-spicy walnuts before they even hit the salad. They were a really great finish to an already delicious salad. It's a hearty salad so it will suffice as a meal.
