We all need an easy recipe to make long days less stressful. This onion soup recipe, featuring Better Than Bouillion, is one of my favorites (and not just because it tastes amazing!). Be sure to save your onion bags to make a dish scrubby that you can use to clean your crock-pot when you’re finished. Check back, as I’ll be sharing a DIY on this soon!
When I prepare this soup, I occasionally I like to add fresh kale and minced garlic to change things up a bit but this base recipe is spectacular as is. When serving, I recommend toasting some sliced French bread (on the diagonal) to enjoy with it.
