I don't always have an envelope of Onion Soup Mix on-hand for a last minute meal. I love this homemade version because the ingredients are fresher and it's actually cheaper than the 1 oz. packet.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup minced onion (I usually leave this out if I want flavor without "chunks")
2 TB beef granuales
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/8 tsp celery seed
1/8 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
Directions:
Stir the minced onion, beef granuales, onion powder, celery seed, paprika, and ground black pepper in a small bowl. Use as a substitute for a 1oz packet of dry onion soup mix.
