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

This recipe came in very handy on a busy day. I think it needed a little more seasonings but that's just my personal preference and it's easy enough for anyone to adjust that to suit their tastes. One hint, break up the spaghetti before adding it. I didn't even think to do that and it was kind of difficult to get it all into the liquid to cook so I ended up breaking it up with a spoon while I stirred it. Would have made more sense to just break it before adding. Sorry if that's obvious to others but it didn't even occur to me! Duh!

My 10 year old son has taken an interest in cooking lately. He made this for us last night. It was wonderful and so easy. He didn't need any help with it at all.
