Purists, don't read.

My better half makes an onion soup using 2 cans of Campbells concomme.

I keep a can of tomato soup on hand for winter days I'm feeling
sick, and nothing else seems to be easier or tastier. Brings me back
to the fifth grade when I'd come home every day for lunch (Yes, we had
neighborhood schools back then) and have a can of tomato soup with
milk.

I make a quickie shepherd pie using a can of vegetable soup when I"m
feeling lazy.
