Any vessel for melted cheese always gets bonus points with me, and French onion soup is one of the best there is.
A couple of onions cook down quite a lot in a good glob of butter. Be sure to get them nice and brown too, scraping up all of those lovely bits from the bottom of the pot. This can take about 30 minutes but the onions only need a nudge here and there with a spoon, so you can multi-task if you like, or sit at the counter and drink some wine and read a book .Article content
The addition of creamy white beans makes this soup a hearty affair, with bonus points given for additional fibre and protein. Can’t go wrong with that! Beans, whether they’re dried or canned, are always in my pantry. I know the white beans not only add loads of nutrition to this soup, but they also make it a more substantial meal which will ultimately be more satisfying. And, given the ever-increasing cost of groceries, beans are still an inexpensive form of protein. So many delicious meals can be built around a can of beans! Tacos, casseroles, pasta, soups, stews, you name it.
When it comes to serving this soup, you can use those classic French onion soup bowls. You know the ones. Maybe you received them as a wedding present in 1985 and have some tucked away in a cupboard. No oven-safe bowls? No problem, just make some cheesy toast and set it atop the soup. Regardless, French onion is a very physical soup. You have to break through that lid of crusty cheesy goodness to get to the onions, beans, and broth.
