  1. Question about the ingredients in the “Camp Stew-Camping Version”:
    The recipe list of ingredients called for “1 ΒΌ cups Onion Soup Mix, Dried”. Would I just buy the pouches of onion soup mix and then use as many pouches as needed to make 1 ΒΌ cups of dry mix?

    Reply

    1. Yep! If you click on the link for the 1 ΒΌ cups Onion Soup Mix, Dried in the ingredients list it gives a suggestion of one dried onion soup mix you could use.
