Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
8 cups sliced yellow onions (about 2 lbs)
5 cups sliced shiitake mushroom caps (about 10 oz whole mushrooms)
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 fresh thyme sprigs
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 (14 oz) can reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1 (14 oz) can fat-free less-sodium beef broth
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper
12 slices french baguettes, cut 1/2 in thick toasted
1/4 cup grated gruyere cheese
1/4 cup crumbled gorgonzola
1/2 tsp finely chopped fresh thyme

Directions:

SOUP: Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and sauté 15 minutes or until almost tender, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and cook 40 minutes or until onions are a deep golden brown. Stir occasionally.
Increase heat to medium, add mushrooms, and cook 10 minutes or until they are tender. Stir frequently. Stir in garlic and thyme sprigs and cook for 2 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add wine to pan. Cook 2 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Add both cans of broth to pan and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer 45 minutes. Stir in salt & pepper and discard thyme sprigs.
TOASTS: Preheat broiler. Arrange bread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Top each piece with 1 tsp Gruyère and 1 tsp Gorgonzola. Broil 2 minutes or until cheese has melted. Sprinkle a little chopped thyme over each piece of toast.
TO SERVE: Ladle about 1 cup of soup into each of 6 bowls and top each serving with 2 pieces of toast.
