    This recipe makes the most delicious french onion soup you will ever eat.

    French Onion Soup Recipe

    I have always loved French Onion Soup and here I’m sharing my recipe for what people say is the best French Onion Soup they have ever tasted or eaten. This great soup makes a great starter for almost any meal or even a great snack.

    And when you make the French Onion Soup with Bermuda Purple Sweet Onions and Buffalo Mozzarella for the cheese you have a soup that your not soon going to forget. And if you love a good soup you won’t find a better soup than this French Onion Soup.

    For Your French Onion Soup Recipe You Will Need.

    1. 8 Large Purple Bermuda Sweet Onions peeled and sliced paper thin.

    2. 2 Quarts Of Beef Broth.

    3. 1 Envelope Lipton’s Onion Soup Mix.

    4. 1 Loaf Of French Bread Sliced Thick.

    5. Shredded Mozzarella Cheese.

    Place your first 3 ingredients in a large stock pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a low medium and cook 45 minutes or until you are sure your onions are well cooked.

    Reduce the heat to low and allow the soup to stay warm.

    On a pan place how ever many mugs of the soup you need to serve and place a thick slice of the French Bread on top of the soup in each mug. Now cover the top of the French Bread with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

    Place the pan of soup mugs carefully in a 400 degree preheated oven and allow your cheese to thoroughly melt and start to run. Turn your ovens broiler on to brown the cheese and bread. As soon as the cheese and bread is slightly brown remove from the oven and serve on a napkin on a saucer. Be sure to warn people that the soup mugs are hot.

DREAMCICLES

Leave a comment

If you love dreamcicles give this recipe a shot.  It’s especially good with orange jello.  Tastes like the real thing.  However, other flavors are good too.

Take two boxes of any flavor sugar-free Jello and dissolve in two cups boiling water. Set in refrigerator to cool slightly. Then add one cup heavy whipping cream. Allow to set completely and cut into cubes. I use a nine inch square pan for this amount.
