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.

cook's notes
The first time my mother-in-law served us this, she had added a few drops of pink food coloring to it. My youngest daughter, who was about four at the time, dove in unsuspecting, thinking it was a sweet of some sort. She had the most ludicrous look of horror on her face when it came up fish. Since then, I have omitted the pink food coloring.

Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
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.

I just has to remark on the story told by the submitter about her little girl. When *I* was not quite 3, I was with my parents at a party where they had shrimp cocktails. Yes, I, too, thought that the pretty pink curls were candy and I can bet that little girl's reaction was no different than mine!!
