What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
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.

This is a staple recipe in my house. I make a huge pot of it, and even my non-bean eaters gobble it down. I'm a vegetarian, so I use vegetable broth instead. I also bring this to potlucks and get positive feedback... great recipe, simple and hearty!
