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 had this dish at a women's luncheon and have made it many times since. It is delicious. A good recipe for those who have never been brave enough to try eating beets.
