French Onion Soup

Serves: 4

Print this Recipe

Serving size: 1 cup

This version of a very popular soup is altered slightly-the fat content is much lower, yet the authentic taste is all here!


   1 pound yellow onions, thinly sliced
   2 tablespoons olive oil
   1 teaspoon brown sugar substitute
   Fresh ground pepper
   1/2 teaspoon (dash) salt
   1 tablespoon unbleached flour
   1 quart low-sodium beef broth
   1/3 cup vermouth
   4 slices French bread, toasted (about 3/4-inch slices)
   1 cup shredded reduced-fat Swiss cheese


1. In a large saucepot, saute the onion in the oil for 15 minutes. Add the sugar, pepper, and salt. Simmer uncovered for 35 minutes, stirring occasionally, adding a little water if necessary. The onions will get very brown.

2. Add the flour and cook an additional 1 minute. Gradually add the beef broth and vermouth; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.

3. Ladle the soup into 4 individual oven-safe soup bowls. Top each bowl with a slice of bread and some cheese. Place under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and serve.
