Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

These bars are made with a tangy-sweet lemon filling and an oatmeal crust.

2/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup old-fashioned oats
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup flour
1 can (14 ounce size) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
Cream butter and brown sugar, then stir in oats and dry ingredients. Mix until crumbly. Spread half of mixture in greased 13" x 9" x 2" pan, packing firmly.
Combine condensed milk, lemon juice, egg yolks, and lemon rind, then let stand 1 minute to thicken. Spread over crumb crust and sprinkle with remaining crumb mixture.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes. Cool 15 minutes in pan. Chill in refrigerator until firm. Cut into 1-3/4" squares.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
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.
