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.
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).

I haven't had grits in years and these brought back good memories for me. Thank you for the easy recipe.

The green chilies gave the grits a nice touch of heat (we used "hot" green chilies). The texture was good and even using lower fat products yielded a lot of good flavor that you don't always get.
