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.

Very tasty recipe and easy to make. I added a small can of baby corn to help my family get their "5-a-day". I also added about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of Red Pepper Flakes to give it a bit of a Szechuan kick. Served over Rice it was a big hit!
