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.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

This was really yummy, but I did alter it a bit because I doubled the amount. I used 6 green onions, 3 zucchini, 3 avocados (they were small), and doubled everything else. Next time I have to make more because our family of 6 gobbled it all up!
