Homemade Onion Soup Mix
We love having this homemade onion soup mix ready to go. My brother in law is allergic to MSG, so it’s always great to have an easy seasoning on hand when we are entertaining for him!
This homemade onion soup mix is great in soups like chicken noodle soup, but it works for just about anything you want to add some flavor to. Grilled chicken breasts, 4 Ingredient Chicken Rice Casserole, you name it!
What Is In Onion Soup Mix
Homemade onion soup mix will almost always contain the following:
- onion flakes
- beef bouillon granules
- onion powder
- paprika
- garlic powder
I like to add black pepper to my homemade onion soup mix. With pepper, it’s important to make sure it’s finely ground. If it has big granules, it will not mix into the seasoning well!

Where did you find Beef (or Chicken) bouillon granules without MSG and too much Sodium?
All my local grocery stores bullion cubes/granules all have MSG and too much Sodium.
You can find Beef Bouillon without MSG on Amazon.
I never have onion soup mix in my cupboard so this is a lifesaver. I did have one question – can the beef bouillon be substituted with chicken broth powder? Or chicken bouillon? I have a couple of family members that do not eat beef but will eat chicken.
It will change the flavor but you can swap them.
I don’t like beef broth, so I sub out with chicken bouillion, I think it gives it a better flavor.
Love that I can make this with ingredients I have around the house
