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.

It's about time somebody just went for it and made all-out lasagna soup. It's cheesy, meaty, and not overwhelmingly noodly thanks to mini mafalda pasta.

Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

This was very good!! Loved the lasagna-like flavor and so easy. I wouldn't change a thing.

This isn't very tomato-tasting at all and the Italian seasoning...well use a VERY small amount. I recommend using Campb tomato soup or your usual tricks instead of paste to get a stronger tomato taste. Mushrooms and a jalepeno pepper works fine. Could use more garlic as well. Do not put more brown sugar in or it will get too sweet. No need to salt with mozz cheese on top.
I doubled it from the start and it didn't fit well in my 5 quart slow cooker. On my next try, I'll choose servings for 9 and it'll be fine. It was delicious!! I like the convenience. I used shells instead. (personal choice)
