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.
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.

We made this at the Assisted Living Facility and the residents LOVED it! They all took the recipe to send to friends and relatives. @ differences - we substituted crushed chiles and added the cheese all at the same time and baked. Excellent! Thank you!

I have been making this for about 20 years- it is a family and company favorite. People rave about it. It is also pretty flexible- you can substitute ingredients, doubles and triples with ease. In a pinch I have substituted peperoncini peppers for the green chili, and it wasn't noticeable. Try this- it's great! My copy of the recipe came with a suggestion to serve it with Baja Chicken- also a Nancy Reagan recipe-they're fabulous together!
