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.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Excellent and easy. You can let this cook all day and it won't overcook. I omit the brown sugar. I've also done this with ground turkey but don't use the extra lean kind or it will be too dry.

I made this sauce today for dinner, and I used 2 (1 lb. cans of diced tomatoes) instead of just 1. My family really enjoyed this sauce, and they are picky eaters!
