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

Zesty bean salads make an outstanding alternative to heavy cookout sides like slaw and potato salad. Cucumber and jalapeno give this salad an equal balance of cool and spicy notes.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
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.

I made this without the jalapeno or peppers. It is so fresh and delicious with the lime juice and cilantro flavors. The kids and my husband wolfed it down. I used grape tomatoes and red onion - overall very attractive and tasty!

I made this for a catering event and everyone (including myself) loved it. Very refreshing and flavorful!
