List of Ingredients
2 Tablespoons butter
8 cups sliced yellow onions
43 1/2 ounces nonfat beef broth, 3 cans
3/4 cup nonfat chicken broth
2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon concentrated beef stock
1 Tablespoon tomato sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
4 drops hot pepper sauce
2 1/2 ounces asiago Cheese, shaved
3 ounces Italian bread (I used diced Portuguese rolls)
1 Tablespoon light butter
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon italian seasoning
Recipe
1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add sliced onions and saute for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often, until onions turn brown.
2. Add next 11 ingredients (beef broth through tabasco sauce) to the pan and stir to combine. Heat soup until it's boiling, then reduce heat and simmer (covered) for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. In the meantime, make croutons by slicing Italian (or focaccia or any bread you may have) into 3/4-inch thick slices. Very lightly butter both sides of those slices, then cut slices into bite-size cubes. Sprinkle with garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Bake the bread cubes at 425 F. for about 10 minutes or until browned and crispy. Shave the asiago by dragging a potato peeler over the edge of a wedge.
4. Serve the soup super hot with a handful of croutons floating on top, followed by about a Tbsp. of shaved asiago.
