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.

Wild rice is wonderfully tender when cooked in the crock pot. Combine it with almonds, onions, celery, mushrooms, chicken, and herbs and you have a delicious dinner.

2 cups wild rice, uncooked
1/2 cup slivered almonds
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 can (12 ounce size) sliced mushrooms, drained
2 cups cut-up, cooked chicken
6 cups low sodium chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Rinse the wild rice and drain well.
Combine the rice and remaining ingredients in the crock pot. Mix well.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 4-5 hours or until the rice is tender. Resist checking the rice too frequently or it may require a longer cook time as steam escapes from the crock pot.
Stir the rice before serving. Drain off any excess liquid if necessary.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
