Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

You know those nights where it's all you can do to throw a bunch of ingredients into a big pan and hope for the best? Here's the tasty solution for those nights: build a creamy mushroom, Swiss, and rice skillet around slices of smoked sausage. Quick, easy, and super satisfying.

1 package (1 pound size) smoked sausage, sliced
3/4 cup uncooked rice
1 can (10 ounce size) cream of celery soup
3/4 cup water
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 package (10 ounce size) frozen peas, no need to thaw
1 can (4 ounce size) sliced mushrooms, drained
1 cup grated Swiss cheese
Combine the sausage, rice, cream of celery soup, water, butter, and salt in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cover the skillet and bring to a boil. When boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and let cook, covered, for 5 minutes.
Stir the peas and mushrooms into the rice mixture. Sprinkle the mixture with the grated Swiss cheese. Cover the skillet again and let cook for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the cheese has melted.
Serve hot.

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.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
