Last week a friend posted on Facebook that she had made French Onion Soup and canned it. You know where that lead me . . I couldn’t stop wanting French Onion Soup. While at the grocery store yesterday, I was tempted to buy a can of already made French Onion Soup but I knew better.
This afternoon I decided I could not live another day without French Onion Soup.
I used the same recipe my friend had used and it was yummy. And there’s leftovers for tomorrow!
And maybe by the time the soup is gone, my craving for French Onion Soup will also be gone.
I could have sworn we had bowls I could stick in the oven but they aren’t in the house and it was too cold to walk over to the shop to see if they’re in there somewhere. So . . the cheese isn’t as melted as I would have preferred but . . it is French Onion Soup!

Yep, and my neighbor got a loaf of that bread!

Soup in a can, Judy? I don’t think you would have been able to swallow it!
Sheryl says
That soup looks delicious. Of course the recipe is a good one….it’s from Chef John Folse!

I made French Onion Soup about a week ago, caramelizing the onions in the crockpot overnight. The soup was good, but not worth the smell! If I do it again, I’ll do it during the day with the windows open. Until then, we’ll order it when we go out.

I didn’t think they smelled bad at all. I liked the smell. It was so quick and easy to make on top of the stove and I ended up with about 1-1/2 quarts left over. I know what we’re having for lunch today.

That recipe looks similar to the one I have altho mine has a tablespoon of sugar in it to help carmelize the onions and I might use just a bit more wine in mine. 🙂 I do need to buy some crocks I can put under the broiler tho. Sure now I’m hungry for French onion soup – which there’s some in the freezer but dang no swiss cheese for on it.

Debra Gutenson says
I made this soup last night for dinner. It was easy and delicious! Thanks for linking to the recipe. Do you think I can freeze leftovers?
JudyL says
I froze my leftovers. I’m not sure of any reason why we shouldn’t freeze it.
