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.

Is there any dish that sounds more English than bubble and squeak? Made with cabbage, herbs, and sausage, it certainly tastes the part as well.

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium onion
1/2 green cabbage
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 sprigs thyme
2 bay leaves
3 red bliss potatoes
8 cups chicken stock
3 chicken sausages, rosemary or other variety
salt and pepper
Preheat oil in a large soup pot.
Cut onion into quarters and slice thinly. Add to pot and saute until softened.
Meanwhile, remove core from cabbage. Cut lengthwise into six equal pieces. Slice each segment thinly crosswise. Add to onion in the pot.
Remove leaves from rosemary and thyme and chop finely. Add to pot along with bay leaves and stir to combine.
Wash potatoes and cut into eighths then cut each segment into four smallish pieces. Add to stock pot along with stock. Cover with lid and bring to boil.
Meanwhile cut each sausage into 1/2 inch rounds. Add to boiling soup. Reduce to simmer.
Simmer for 15 minutes until potatoes are cooked. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and serve.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
