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.

Think of the Michelada cocktail as tasting like a Mexican bloody Mary. The ingredients include tomato juice, Mexican beer, and lots of spices and seasonings. Because it's only made with beer, it doesn't have a high alcohol content (but please drink responsibly!). A good Mexican lager is best in this recipe but you can use other beer in a pinch.

1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 lime wedge
2 ounces tomato juice
1 ounce fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
2 dashes Maggi seasoning
1 bottle (12 ounce size) Mexican lager, well chilled
1 pickled jalapeno or lime wedge, to garnish
Combine the salt and chili powder and place on a plate or flat dish.
Run the cut edge of the lime around the rim of a beer glass or highball glass. Turn the glass upside down and evenly dip the rim into the chili-salt mixture. Set aside.
Combine the tomato juice, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, Maggi seasoning, and beer in the salt-rimmed glass and gently stir to combine. You can also serve this on the rocks.
Garnish with a pickled jalapeno or lime wedge if desired and serve immediately.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
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.
