Vegetarian French Onion Soup
Most French onion soup recipes call for beef stock, but substituting mushroom broth instead creates a surprisingly rich soup, full on flavor - without the meat. Could become a staple recipe in vegetarian or meat-loving households! A long cooking time and savory ingredients mean this soup is pretty darn rich. Add in the toasted baguette slices and all that gooey Gruyere... this soup is definitely the main course. Serve alongside a crisp, green salad.

Cook's Notes:
Slice onions as thinly as possible for best presentation and texture. You can use yellow onions instead of sweet, if desired.
Substitute dry white wine for fino dry sherry and dried thyme for herbes de Provence if you don't have them on hand.
Add another 32-ounce carton of mushroom broth if you prefer a thinner, soupier consistency; the recipe as written produces a thick soup.
