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.

2-5 hrs
ingredients
1/3 cup bourbon
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
5 pounds sweet potatoes (sometimes called yams)
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/3 cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
directions
In a small bowl, pour bourbon over dried apricots.
Scrub and rinse sweet potatoes, pierce with a fork several times and place directly on oven rack. Bake at 350 degrees F until potatoes are soft when pierced (anywhere from 60 to 90 minutes depending on size). Let stand until cool, peel them and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add brown sugar, butter and vanilla and mash with a potato masher until mixture is only slightly chunky. Stir in apricots and bourbon.
Spoon into a shallow baking dish and spread level. Bake uncovered until hot in the center, about 30 minutes. Serve warm.

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