Here is how you make Lower fat French Onion Soup:

This makes 4 ,1 cup servings.Begin by thinly slicing your 4 onions and combining them in a large pan with the 3 tbs country crock and 1 tsp salt. Cook them over Med. heat until they are carmelized. Do not omit salt, it is needed for proper carmelization! This step can take a while, be patient and keep stirring to keep the onions from burning. While carmelizing onions, place 4 cups of water in a microwave safe container and drop in the bullion cubes. microwave until bullion cubes are dissolved. ( takes my microwave about 5 min) After broth is made and onions are carmelized, pour broth into pan. Add the wine, worcestershire sauce, & sugar. Simmer for 10 min.Add optional 1/2 tbs soy sauce if the flavor needs more depth.While soup is simmering cut he bread slices into cubes and toast in the oven. Shred Swiss cheese.After bread cubes/croutons are finished ladle 1 cup into an oven save bowl or Mug. I like to use a mug so that the surface is smaller and my cheese doesn't seem too sparce! top with bread cubes/croutons and shredded swiss cheese.Place Mug/bowl on a baking pan with a raised lip in case of spills and broil until melted and toasty on top...enjoy!!Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user MELISSAROSE82.
