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.

I wanted a combination of fresh salad and grilled veggies, with some spicy, meaty substance. This recipe was just that. Very good! For a bit more garlic flavor in the dressing, next time I'll mince the clove rather than merely crush it and throw it in to shake.
