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.

Phenomenal recipe! I have made it numerous times and it has always been a huge hit. I do scale down on the red pepper flakes as they pack some heat but that's just a thing of preference. Highly recommended. Added this recipe to my personal cookbook.
