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.

2-5 hrs
ingredients
2 cups uncooked pasta shells
1/2 cup vanilla pudding or whipped topping
1 can (15 ounce size) fruit cocktail, either in syrup or in juice
directions
Boil pasta for time recommended on package or for make-ahead salad, boil for 2 minutes less than package says, for al dente pasta. (Do not add salt or oil to water.) Drain and run cold water over it to speed chilling. Place in large bowl.
Drain fruit cocktail and reserve syrup or juice. Add fruit to pasta, and add whichever creamy stuff you prefer and mix well, chill and serve.
If you are making this ahead, add reserved juice and chill 3-4 hours or overnight.
