Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

If you're craving some thick gumbo that makes no compromises, here it is. Eggplant, tomato and okra stewed in chicken stock with spicy jalapenos makes a healthy and hearty gumbo to top a scoop of rice.

1 large eggplant, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
15 pods fresh okra, sliced
1 onion, chopped
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, diced (or to taste)
chicken stock
salt and pepper, to taste
1 1/2 cup rice, cooked according to package directions, using chicken stock for liquid
Place vegetables and seasoning in a large stock pot. Cover with chicken stock and let simmer until vegetables are tender. Use enough stock to cover vegetables, plus 2 inches above them.
When vegetables are tender, place a spoonful of rice in a soup bowl and add a ladle of the gumbo mixture.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
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.
