French Onion Soup

While I love all types of soup (really, I do!), french onion is at the tippy top of my favorites.  If it’s on a menu at a restaurant, there’s a good chance I’ll order it. I can’t help myself with the awesome flavor and ooey gooey cheese.  It used to be considered a poor person’s soup because onions were easy to grow.  But it became a big hit in the US back in the 1960s and I’m grateful it did.

Here in the US, we serve it with a large piece of bread and lots of cheese.  It’s usually a side dish or a starter for a meal but I could eat bowls and bowls of it and be full.  You too?

If you like this recipe, you’ll like these too:

Slow Cooker French Onion Soup

While there are a few ways to make French Onion Soup, I love this version.  You throw everything into a crockpot and give it a go.  The most work takes place with slicing all of the onions beforehand.  If you are like me and love kitchen gadgets, then you might want to invest in a slicer or a mandoline (though you might cut your fingers off… consider yourself warned).

    This brings back memories of my childhood! My Mom didn’t cook much, but when she did it was fantastic, and I LOVED her french onion soup! It looked similar to yours, though I have no idea how she made hers. I don’t consider myself a great cook (I’m one of those lucky girls that married a chef), but this simple recipe looks like something even I could manage! I’ll definitely be trying this perfect fall recipe soon. Thanks!

(Like Mickey!) I started 30days several years ago as my idea file. After 9 years and thousands of ideas, I realize I’ll never be able to check them all off my list.
