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.

Cornmeal and gluten-free baking mix make up a batter that gives these rings a satisfying crunch without the wheat.

1/2 cup Arrowhead Mills gluten-free baking mix
1/4 cup cornmeal
2/3 cup milk
1 egg
1 teaspoon canola or safflower oil
2 large onions, peeled and sliced and separated into 1/4-inch rings
1 quart safflower or canola oil for frying
Pour safflower or canola oil into large, deep heavy skillet and heat to 375 degrees F.
Meanwhile, slice onions and combine first 5 ingredients and whisk until smooth (depending upon batter thickness, add a teaspoon more of milk.)
Dip rings into batter with fork, briefly allowing extra batter to drip before plunging into the hot oil. Fill pan with batter-dipped rings, allowing enough room for turning each one over when golden on one side, approximately 1-2 minutes per side.
After each ring has been flipped and is golden, remove and drain on paper napkins or towels. Serve immediately or keep warm in 300 degrees F oven during remaining preparation.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
