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.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

I was so happy to find this recipe! Thanks for submitting! I originally got it a few years ago from a food company website. I use it all of the time and it must have gotten taken out of my recipe binder. Anyway, here are my thoughts on the recipe. Instead of reducing the amount of cheese, increase the eggs by 2 (total of 5) and increase the sour cream to a total of 1 1/4 cup. Bake in an 8x11 casserole dish. This recipe also double quite easily, baked in a 13x9 pan. Another touch would be to reserve some of the green chiles for garnish on top with the tomatoes. We serve this with salsa or sour cream w/chile power stirred in. A side of sliced avocado makes a pretty and tasty compliment. This is a great recipe for breakfast or brunch. I like it so much more that those "hash brown breakfast casseroles". I have always gotten great compliments from extended family and friends when this is served. Enjoy!

This recipe is VERY cheesy. Needed more chilies in our opinion - maybe double? Just too much cheese for only 9 ounces of chiles.
