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.

Asian pears have a crisp, fresh, fruity apple flavor that pairs well with the warmth of the ginger syrup. If you can't get Asian pears you can substitute a bosc pear or crisp apple.

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.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Make up the full recipe of ginger syrup because once you taste it you are going to want to use it in everything! The martini has a wonderful blend of flavors and isn't overly sweet. I really enjoyed this cocktail!
