Ingredients

How to make it

  • In a large soup pot saute onions in the butter until they are softened and start to become translucent. About 20 minutes or so.
  • Add the beef broth, water, salt, garlic powder, pepper, Worcestershire sauce & bay leaf to the pan and bring to a boil.
  • After the soup comes to a boil, reduce heat & simmer for 45 minutes.
  • Before serving remove bay leaf.
  • Ladle soup into bowls, top with one piece of bread or many croutons and a slice of cheese.
  • Broil in oven or microwave long enough to melt cheese.
  • (We like to use croutons just so there are bite sized pieces of bread, something else I've found at our grocery store is a bag full of little round bread pieces in different flavors, those work nice too.)

    I love onion soup, it is one of my all time favorites. I make mine in the crock pot and the house smells heavenly when I get home at night and all I have to do is ladle, and toast the cheese. Makes me very very happy. Yummy post again, my'dear.
