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 Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

Kids and husband loved this. I not so much. I prefer sweet just like the fresh ones you can get at Safeway/Albersons. I did add green food coloring to make it bright and pretty. Overall husband said to rate a 5, Ill do a 4 since its not sweet enough for me :)

Make sure you chop the pistachios really well or you'll end up with big chunks that are hard to bite into. I wasn't real carful about chopping and ran into that problem. The muffins are dense and sort of cupcake like. Really delicious flavor and color from the pudding mix. I did add the chocolate but I used mini chocolate chips instead of chopped chocolate bars. I also used coarse sugar instead of regular for sprinkling on top you could also use some of the colored sugars to make them look extra pretty.
Very good & a very dense batter. Think I may use mayo instead of sour cream. I did increase the oil to 1/2 cup instead of 1/4. Definitely a keeper. Thank you!
