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.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Per the previous review, I just omitted the lemon juice as it didn't seem like it would be needed. It's a good recipe and very "warming". We made it for watching a football game outside and it really warmed us up and everyone liked it. I think I will serve it for the holidays too this year.
I like the recipe its a good foundation. I added nutmeg and whole apples cored and sliced. i think the lemon juice was a little much. next time i'll try a little less.
