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.

Loved this recipe, though I made some changes. I didnt have pineapple, so I omitted the fruit and juice, and used lemon juice instead. I also didn't have grapes. I used olive oil mayo instead. I estimated quantities and mixed to desired consistency. Turned out great!

I love this chicken salad recipe. You would never guess it uses fat free mayo. I leave out the almonds to reduce the fat a little more. Also I substitute dried cranberries for the raisins, which I think is a perfect complement to the other flavors. I live alone and cut the recipe but still make plenty to have for a few days.
This is my standard chicken salad recipe, and I always get raves. Even better the next day..if anything is left!
