Fifty-Two Dinners

One new recipe a week for a year. That was the original goal set as a New Year's resolution way back in 2009.

It didn't happen. Nor did it happen in the following years.

But I have continued posting and striving to try one new recipe a week. Some months it happens. Some months it doesn't.

And along the way I've picked up readers from across the country who occasionally pop in to see what's cooking.

Clearly there are better food blogs than mine.

But if you're looking for quick, easy, and healthy with a dash of humor... I'm glad to share what I can.

French Onion Soup

Well... this isn't exactly a new recipe. It's actually a favorite recipe of ours. But since the "new" recipes are a little scarce this year, I thought I'd share it.

INGREDIENTS:

¼ cup butter

2-3 large yellow onions, sliced

1 cup dry white wine

3 cans (14 oz) beef broth

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

½ tsp salt

½ tsp dry thyme leaves

French bread, sliced

Provolone cheese

DIRECTIONS:


Melt butter in large skillet. Add onions and cook until brown. Stir in wine. Combine onion mixture, beef broth, Worcestershire, salt and thyme in slow cooker.

Cook 4 hours on low.


Serve with bread and cheese on top, broiled in oven to melt cheese.

VERDICT:

Well, I pretty much already gave you the verdict. This soup doesn't take many ingredients, cooks all by itself while you're doing other stuff, and tastes great.
