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.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

I have tried a similar recipe but I layer the pasta. Basically put half pasta in prepared oven proof dish and then cover with half mozzarella cheese and then another layer of pasta and another layer of cheese.
