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.

ingredients
1/2 pound juicy black olives, such as Pelion or Kalamata, pitted
1/2 pound green olives, such as Nafplion, pitted
1 cup capers
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, more to taste
5 cloves garlic
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat leaf parsley leaves
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon dried savory or oregano, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons dried whole-wheat bread crumbs, optional
thin slices whole-wheat bread, toasted
directions
Rinse the olives and capers thoroughly under cold running water and drain well on paper towels.
In a food processor, combine the olives, capers, lemon juice and the garlic. Process into a smooth paste. Add the parsley and process until incorporated. Add oil, savory or oregano, and white pepper and process until blended.
Taste and adjust the seasonings, adding more lemon juice and white pepper, if needed. If the mixture is too dry, add more oil. If the mixture is too moist, stir in the bread crumbs.
Transfer to a serving bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 to 3 hours or overnight.
Serve small portions on the bread.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
