 Note: I was sent a box of Vidalia onions to make this post. Opinions are mine alone.

When I first received a box of Vidalia onions, I knew I had to make French Onion Soup. The sweetness of the onions, especially after caramelizing, is perfect for this recipe.

French Onion Soup is a favorite of mine. Who doesn’t love comforting soup with a bunch of bread and cheese goodness on top?

My version below is adapted from a recipe I found on Food Network.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
• 6 Vidalia onions, thinly sliced
• 4 garlic cloves, chopped, and one garlic clove, cut in half
• 2 bay leaves
• 2 fresh thyme sprigs, plus more to taste
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 3/4 cup red wine
• 1/4 cup sherry
• 3 heaping tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 quarts beef broth
• 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1 baguette, cut into bite sized pieces
• 1/2 pound grated Gruyere or Swiss cheese
