Copycat Lipton Onion Soup Mix Recipe

I went to make Tater Tot Casserole tonight and realized I had no Lipton Onion Soup Mix. What does one do during quarantine? I concocted a Copycat Lipton Onion Soup Mix Recipe. The recipe is enough for 2 packets, so if you are using this, 1/2 of it if you need the equivalent to one packet.

Ingredients

1/2 c. minced onions

4 T. beef bouillon granules

1/2 tsp. onion powder

1 T. parsley

1/4 tsp. paprika

Directions

Put it in an airtight container or a Ziploc baggie. Use immediately or store for up to a month. You can also double or triple this recipe and keep it in a mason jar. I don’t use this often. Always, though, I put it on a roast. Also, I put it in my Tater Tot Casserole, which I will post the recipe for tomorrow.

Anyway

I’ve been cooking up a storm during the quarantine. Well, who am I kidding? I cook all the time. Honestly, I feel like that is all I do: cook, clean, or educate. The highlight of my day is driving down the road to see Kevin, the pig. He is my neighbor’s pet pig that lives in the front yard. If you want to join in on the fun, I post daily on my quarantine log with my crew on my Facebook page. Come on over and “like” my page and join in. Let us all know what you are doing during this bizarre time in history.

Seasoning Recipe Mix

Seasoning Recipe Mix

This is the Seasoning Recipe Mix recipe I use to season absolutely everything! I tend to use more garlic than anything. Also, I am not a fan of pepper. So, I came up with an excellent mixture of flavors. Occasionally, I have to use minced onion instead of onion powder. It’s such a simple and flexible seasoning blend, perfect for adding flavor to meats, vegetables, soups, or any dish that needs a savory kick. It’s a staple in my kitchen because I use it daily, and it’s great for batch cooking or sprinkling over whatever I’m making.

1 c. kosher salt

1/2 c. Garlic Powder

Onion Powder, 1/2 c.

1/8 c. Pepper

How I use this:

I use an old parmesan container. Therefore, I can double this recipe to make it last longer. I have also used a baggie, Tupperware, or a mason jar. So really, you can use anything. I keep it in my spice cabinet.

Once I get it all mixed up, I shake it up and use it daily. I tend to be an “over garlic” person, so this is a happy medium, and we don’t scare the vampires away.

The other day, I graduated from the parmesan jar to a mason jar. However, I do use the parmesan jar lid. It fits perfectly over my mason jar. This has helped with the mixture not clumping so much.
