Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
8 cups vertically sliced yellow onion (about 2 lb)
5 cups sliced shiitake mushroom caps (about 10 oz whole mushrooms)
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 thyme sprigs
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 (14-oz) can fat-free , less-sodium chicken broth
1 (14-oz) can fat-free , less-sodium beef broth
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
12 (1/2-inch- thick) slices french bread baguette, toasted (about 6 oz)
1/4 cup (1 oz) grated gruyere cheese
1/4 cup (1 oz) crumbled gorgonzola
1/2 tsp finely chopped fresh thyme

Directions:

To prepare soup, heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion to pan; sauté 15 minutes or until almost tender, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook until deep golden brown (about 40 minutes), stirring occasionally.
Increase heat to medium. Add mushrooms to pan; cook 10 minutes or until mushrooms are tender, stirring frequently. Stir in garlic and thyme sprigs; cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Increase heat to medium-high. Add wine to pan; cook 2 minutes or until most of the liquid evaporates. Add broths to pan; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat, and simmer 45 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper. Discard thyme sprigs.
To prepare toasts, preheat broiler.
Arrange bread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Top each bread slice with 1 teaspoon Gruyère and 1 teaspoon Gorgonzola. Broil 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Sprinkle chopped thyme over cheese. Ladle about 1 cup soup into each of 6 bowls; top each serving with 2 toasts.
