Dottie,this looks and sounds so good.Thank-you for the recipe


Bennigan's (S&A Restaurant Group, Dallas) actually published a recipe book back in 1989. It is named Escape From The Everyday. It has 216 pages and I have a copy. Sorry, this recipe may be very, very good, but it isn't Bennigan's. The Bennigans recipe uses Spanish yellow onions, cooking sherry, white pepper, beef base and Provolone cheese. It is topped with Holland rusks. I'll try posting it soon.


Bennigans Onion Soup -copycat a great recipe whatever the name is.

Thank you Dottie
Michael


I'm with you Michael...don't care what it is called (Just what I was told! LOL!) But if it is called ONION SOUP I'll stand in line most anyplace for a bowl of it. (wink)

Thanks Michael! Thanks Cooper for your comment too!
