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.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

My family loves this recipe! I have to make lots of extra carrots. I would serve it to guests as part of a very casual meal...not gourmet but a sure hit. Really easy, too!
