Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
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.

My late wife used to stuff football shaped seasoned ground beef,(at least two lbs.)approx. three x four inches with sauerkraut, and cook in a large fry pan, with a can or two of mushroom soup, for what seemed to be a long while. (simmering covered) She also put chopped onions in the burger also. Anyone heard of this ? Was very good.

Instead of ground beef I used sliced smoked sausage that I browned with the onion and then mixed as directed. Since there wasn't much drippings from not using ground beef I added some butter to the oil and then mixed that with the bread crumbs. I also drained the sauerkraut and rinsed it. I think the taste would have been too strong. The recipe didn't really need any extra liquid as I didn't squeeze out the water from the sauerkraut after rinsing so it worked well.
