Get the latest Soupmix recipes from Group Recipes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/tag/soupmix I am allergic to MSG but I need Lipton's Onion Soup Mix sometimes for recipes. This is the closest I could get to Lipton's Onion Soup Mix recipe (and in fact I've been told it's better) and it has no msg or preservatives. 5 Tbs is equal to One 1 1/4 oz package. http://www.grouprecipes.com/44311/copycat-lipton-onion-soup-mix-no-msg.html I'm always running across recipes that call for onion soup mix. Not something I generally keep on hand. Now you can make your own. From The Tightwad Gazette II. http://www.grouprecipes.com/28270/onion-soup-mix.html My dad used to make this while I was growing up. And one I've made many, many times for my family. Since I've always done this from memory I'm not exact on the serving size and ingredient amounts. Use your own judgement as to how much to use. http://www.grouprecipes.com/8742/hamburger-carrots-potatoes.html
