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.

For six servings, this seemed a little light on the meat (for being a chili recipe), so I used a combined pound of store-bought fajita meat and a pound of ground beef. That worked great! Using an entire bottle of store-bought fajita marinade seemed a little excessive. The smokey flavor of the liquid over-powered the rest a little and made it all a little soupy, or liquidy. More than I would have preferred, anyway. You could halve that amount and still have good flavor. For the "tomato juice or beer" option, I used V-8 Juice and that was a fine substitution. Ultimately it came out alright and was a tasty dinner that wasn't hard to make. Perfect for a weeknight with family.
