An absolutely delicious French onion soup. Season with soy sauce instead of salt and top with your favorite cheese and melt it under the broiler, if desired.

This soup was great! My whole family loved it! I like how this recipe didn't have all the oil and margarine that other recipes do. I added fat free mozarella on top of the soup then put the bread on added a little more mozarella sprinkled some Parmesian cheese and put the bowls in the oven to broil until the cheese melted and slightly browned. Delicious!! Read More

This soup was extremely "onion-y". If I make it again I would cut down on the onions and increase the broth. Read More

As with the previous reviewer i used vegetarian "beef" broth instead of veggie broth and only 2 large onions. I didn't have sherry so used a good red wine instead. Threw the bread on with some vegan mozzarella and broiled it for a few minutes. Everyone loved especially me! Thanks Read More

I needed a soup to bring to our church with no meat or meat stock. I was delighted to find this recipe. It was delicious!! I had to triple the recipe and the soup was gone in a half an hour!I added shallots and chives for a variety of onions. Plus I served the soup with homemade croutons and grated jarlsburg cheese. Make it!!! You'll love it!! Read More

I thought this recipe was wonderful. I did happen to make some modifications. I added more broth and added vegetarian worchestire sauce. This adds wonderful depth and flavor. YUM!!! This is a total do again. Read More

Really good onion soup! LOVED THE GARLIC!!! My house smelled like onion & garlic for days (not necessarily a bad thing!)... I took the other reviewers' suggestions and only used 2 large onions - and that was plenty. I also used vegetarian "beef" broth (purchased at a health food store) instead of vegetable broth. I found another recipe that used fresh thyme in the onion soup recipe - maybe I'll try that next time. I will definitely make this recipe (with a few modifications) again. Read More

Tasty but ditto on too many onions not enough broth. While making it I didn't think this was going to be the case but found others reviewers were right! I'd still make it again only adjust the quantities. Read More

This recipe is great! I would give it 5 stars but it took almost an hour to make. I didn't have any sherry so I used a leftover bottle of red wine which worked well. I first browned the onions and garlic in a little bit of olive oil and I stirred the wine into the mixture. I also chopped up some fresh mushrooms and threw them into the wine/veggie mix. I think the mushrooms helped to add more of a "beefy" flavor. Will make again! Read More
