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.

The only thing that is wrong with this recipe is the cooking time. You'll need to roast the veggies longer than a mere 10 minutes, and you should stir/toss them so they evenly cook. Otherwise, this recipe is easy AND tasty! You can use other veggies in it as well (eggplant, bell peppers, yellow squash, etc)
