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.

My husband HATES eggplant and has never liked it in any dish - until now! We had guests over who are vegetarians so I needed something impressive and filling to serve and found this. I had actually made something separate for my husband but he ended up eating more of this than his meaty dish! Everyone really loved this recipe. Thank you SO much!!!

This was better than good! I sauteed some sliced onions and used part skim mozz. instead of the soy. It far surpassed the eggplant polenta recipe that I have been making since 2002. Thank you to whomever posted it!
