Env. onion soup mix?

I recently saw a recipe that mimics the Olive Garden spaghetti sauce

recipe.

But one of the ingredients is "env. onion soup mix".

What's "env."? Is it a brand name? Can I find this in Southern

California?

If not, what's the best substitute?

I think it means, "an envelope of onion soup mix." That's how that
dried, salted, thoroughly weird product is packaged. (I'm not saying I
have never used it, but think about it: onion *soup*, dried.) -aem

Thanks. 🙂 Makes perfect sense. I even looked it up to no avail. One day
I'll get the ol' common sense part of the brain working. <g>

I think the recipe's author just abbreviated the word "envelope" so just
use one envelope of Lipton onion soup mix.
