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.

Crispy romaine lettuce is combined with salted cashews and Swiss cheese to create a texturally interesting salad. The dressing blends vinegar, oil, and poppy seeds for added zest.

1/3 cup white vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
1 teaspoon grated onion
1 dash salt
1 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon poppy seeds
1 medium bunch romaine lettuce, torn
1 cup salted cashew halves
4 ounces Swiss cheese, diced or julienne
In a blender, combine the vinegar, sugar, mustard, onion, and salt, then cover and process until well blended. While processing, gradually add oil in a steady stream. Stir in poppy seeds.
In a salad bowl, combine the romaine, cashews, and Swiss cheese. Serve with dressing.

This dressing was AWESOME!I have a hard time getting my family to eat healthy, but this dressing did the trick. It may have a lot of oil in it, but you really don't need much to add flavor. The only thing I would change would be the salad itself. I felt there was too much swiss cheese and it needed more of a vegetable variety. Either way this dressing was wonderful!
