Lower Carb French Onion Soup


1. Cut onions in half, then thinly slice.

2. In a large sauce pot, heat oil and add onions, medium high heat.

3. Saute onions for about 20 minutes, until limp and golden brown in color.

5. Add a splash of sherry if desired, turn off heat.

6. Put oven on broil cycle.

7. Place 4 soup crocks in a baking pan and ladle onion sherry broth mixture evenly among 4 crocks; the pan will prevent spillover in your oven and make it easier to transport the hot crocks.

13. Serve crocks on separate plates.

14. For carbers, you can add a thick slice of toasted bread to the soup, before the sliced cheeses go on, just adjust the amount of broth mixture to each crock.
