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.


Cherries jubilee made with flambeed brandy over rich, vanilla ice cream is a serious showstopper of a dessert.


1/4 cup sugar
1 dash salt
1 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
33 ounces pitted dark sweet cherries in syrup
4 tablespoons brandy
1 1/2 pint vanilla ice cream
Heat a stainless steel skillet over medium heat. Add the sugar, salt, and cornstarch and mix well. Drain the syrup from the cherries into the skillet and mix well. Bring the syrup to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened. Reduce the heat to a low simmer then gently stir in the pitted cherries.
Remove the pan from the heat. Very slowly add the brandy to the skillet. Using a long match or lighter, ignite the brandy in the pan.
Let the flames die off. Divide the ice cream between individual dessert dishes. Spoon the cherries jubilee over the ice cream and serve immediately.

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