soup is good food

[spiderdust]

Since we're all sick here, I'm making some onion soup.

Here's my easy version:

Melt a 1/2 stick of butter in a large crock pot, chop up lots & lots of onions. Cook overnight. In the morning, add stock (beef or vegetable, whichever you prefer). Soup should be ready by lunchtime.

You can either serve it with cheese toasts or you can do the whole ovenproof bowl/croutons/shredded mozzerella cheese/broiling thing.

I'm also tempted to make some garlic broth. Good sipping broth for sick people!
