I didn't even know that "real cooks" looked down their noses at that cooking method till I started watching shows on Food Network. Well, thyself people may not need the soup cans for cooking but I sure do. So many truly tasty crockpot recipes to be made using those Cambells soups. Works for me.
Oh and something else I make. I simply brown up some chop meat and then add a can of cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup. If its too thick add some milk. After it is heated it makes a slop that tastes good. I eat it with boiled potatoes for an easy supper.

cream of mushroom, celery and chicken I use the most, I dont know why I never tried the cream of onion, I love onions, but I got a can the other day to put with something.

I use the onion soup all the time.

Cream of onion? Never noticed that one, will have to try it. In the winter, I take cream of mushroom or chicken--whichever is in the cabinet; any cooked ground meat, or shredded chicken, or ham, or what have you; a dollop of sour cream; tater crowns--I like the crispier ends of the tater tots best; shredded cheese, and garlic--because I add garlic to almost every savory thing I make. Mix it all together, spread it in a cake pan or casserole dish, add more shredded cheese to the top; and bake it until the cheese is brown and chewy.

Rita, is it the cream of onion, not the regular onion soup you use with your ribs?

No regular onion soup. I didn't know there was a cream of onion. But I do buy one called golden mushroom which you can use like cream of mushroom. Only it gives it a slightly different flavor. The ribs in onion soup is a staple of mine, love it.
