Onion Soup

Now that I had good crusty bread (see the following post), I needed to make onion soup.

I started with two huge red onions from our garden.  This was a great year for onions - probably because we got so much rain.

These went into the dutch oven with some butter and olive oil, salt and pepper.

And they cooked, and they cooked, and they cooked.

I added red wine, stock, garlic, bay leaf, thyme.

 Then I toasted some of the baguette, topped it with Swiss Cheese, added the soup, and served.

Mmmmmmm.
