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.

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.

Love the flavor of this. Not light on calories but amazingly good. I served it with simple grilled pork chops and a light salad and it was a delicious and easy meal.

This is actually a great recipe that you can adjust to your liking. I added celery when I cooked the squash - leaving the stalks whole so you can easily remove them before the blender. I added a peeled/cored apple and a peeled sweet potato to the squash while it was boiling. Because i added the apple, I didn't add the maple syrup. I also added about 1/2 tsp of ground ginger - because I like the kick of autumn ginger gives this great bisque. I didn't have white pepper so I used black. It worked fine for me because I like the look of pepper in dishse like this. This was extremely easy, tasty and was a big hit with my family!

OK, well it is awesome however, there is a major mistake in the recipe. If you, like I, am learning to cook and follow directions blindly, you will end up cooking this twice. Like I did. For a serving for 8, it is not 12 Teaspoons, it is 1/2 teaspoon. And, as a note, Peeling and cutting up Butternut squash is a job in itself. But, once you are done and make this recipe with the right amount of pepper, you will not want to share the soup with your guests!!
