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.

Rice, eggs, and ricotta mixed in a pie crust with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice make up this excellent Italian-style Easter dessert.

1 cup cooked white rice
8 eggs, lightly beaten
2 pounds ricotta cheese
2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (10-inch) pie crust
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine the cooked rice, eggs, ricotta cheese, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Mix well.
Place the pie crust in a pie dish. Fill the pie crust with the rice mixture, spreading it evenly.
Place the rice pie in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour or until the pie is set.
Turn off the oven and leave the pie in the warm oven for 1 hour.
Serve the pie warm or at room temperature. If desired, sprinkle the pie with powdered sugar.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
