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.
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!

This is a classic salad that is always a hit wherever I take it. Sometimes I omit the raisins depending on who I'm serving it to, but usually I make it exactly as written.

This is my go-to dish when invited to a barbecue. We like ours a little less sweet, so I just add a bit less sugar. Last time I made this was for an office potluck; I have several colleagues who don't eat bacon, so I left that out altogether, and it was still great. People enjoyed it so much that an email went out to the whole company asking for the recipe.

Our family has been making this recipe for years and we always get rave reviews! It is absolutely delicious! I am a vegetarian, so I substitute bacon bits for the bacon and it comes out just great.
