While I was in tuscon my inlaws made french onion soup. I didn't think i would like it but i loved it! Wednesday night we made it again and i loved it all over again.. so here is the recipe.
French Onion Soup
3 medium onions, sliced
2 tablespoons butter
5-8 cups water
1 small carrot, shredded
1 small stalk celery, chopped fine
2 sprigs parsley, or dried parsley flakes
1 small bay leaf
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
Salt & pepper
1-3 cubes beef bullion
1-3 cubes chicken bullion
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3-6 slices toasted French bread
3-6 slices Swiss cheese
Grated Parmesan cheese
Cover and cook onions in butter in a 3-quart saucepan over LOW heat,stirring occasionally, 30 minutes. Drain or blot of excess butter from the onions. Add everything except the bread and cheese, adjusting bullion,water, and seasonings to taste. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat, cover and simmer about 30 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Serve soup into oven proof bowls. Top each bowl of soup with Swiss and then Parmesancheese and broil briefly to melt cheese. Place the bread into the soup and enjoy.
So this probably isn't the healthiest with the bread and cheese but if you limit those quantities it's pretty healthy, not to mention delicious... and i don't usually like onions or swiss cheese :)
