I really like the use of the 'Bay Leaf' in
this Onion Soup "5"FORK recipe ~
I believe that it adds a lovely
'layer-of-flavor'~
This is a MUST 'Make&Taste' ~

French Onion Soup has always been my soup of choice...I love making a big crockpot of it, especially in this chilly weather. I usually use a diff cheese on mine (instead of gruyere, I use Swiss), due to some allergies in the household. Gave it a 5! :o)
