Lipton Onion Soup Mix Recipe

We love making homemade seasoning. It is really simple to do and we can control what ingredients go into the seasoning blend. This Homemade Lipton Onion Soup Mix is made with simple pantry staple ingredients that can easily be found at the grocery store.

I love adding onion soup mix to my pot roast recipes, Air Fryer Meatloaf and Catalina chicken recipe. It adds so much flavor that all I need is around a tablespoon when making these recipes. I have even added as a dry rub to my steak recipes and it was delicious.

Making homemade seasoning saves me time and saves money. All you need is a few pantry ingredients and a spice jar to store the seasoning to use many different ways.

What is Onion Soup Mix Made of?

Buying a Packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix contains a lot of ingredients that we can’t even pronounce. That is why I love making my own seasoning. I started making my Homemade Taco Seasoning years ago and it taste so much better than buying the packet stuff.

This Onion Soup Mix is just as easy and all the ingredients can be found in the spice aisle. The seasoning blend contains onion flakes, onion powder, parsley flakes, beef cubes, celery seeds, and paprika. The combination of these ingredients with some black pepper taste great and doesn’t contain anything that is unnecessary.
