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.

Try the canned chop suey vegetables instead of or in addition to bean sprouts. Drain, reserving liquid, as part of the water called for. ( lo sodium canned stock will add more favor)Saute veggies with chopped onion. Add soy sauce sparingly until desired taste has been achieved.

A little bland, but not bad! We'd probably use low sodium chicken broth instead of some of the water. We'd also increase the soy sauce a little, not a lot, but it just needed "something" more. It was, however, extremely easy to throw together and was ready in about 20 minutes total.
