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.

Just two or three ingredients are all you need for a cheap, natural, and high-quality cleaning product. Essential oils are definitely nice to add, though, and this recipe includes some suggested options like lavender.

1/2 cup baking soda
liquid soap or detergent (see directions)
5 drops antibacterial essential oil*, or lemon or lime juice (optional)
Place the baking soda in a small bowl. Add enough soap while stirring until a frosting-like consistency is formed. If desired, add the essential oil or juice and blend well.
To use, spread the mixture on a sponge and clean the surface. Rinse the surface well after cleaning.
* Good essential oils to use are tea tree oil, lavender, or rosemary.
