Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

The downside of margaritas is the sugar content. If you are watching your carbs, try this version made with sugar-free drink mix. Cut down on calories out without sacrificing happy hour.

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.

Finally I can have a margarita again! Been counting calories carefully to get into shape but I do miss having a sweet drink once in a while. This turned out pretty good. Not quite as strong flavor as a real margarita but I think I can tweak that with the amount or brand of drink mix I use. Definitely will keep this recipe handy!
