Sweet Potatoes and Yams
Today, sweet potatoes and yams are mostly used interchangeably to mean sweet potatoes. True yams aren't related to sweet potatoes. High in Vitamin C and A, these tasty items are often considered healthier than their regular potato counterpart. Sweet potatoes and yams are delicious baked, cooked as fries, in casseroles, pureed in soups, mashed or used as a pie filling.

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