GREAT French Onion Soup that adheres to Weight Watcher Members low points recipes. POINTS value is 4 points per serving. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon canola oil |
6 large sliced onions (about 3 pounds) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
3 fresh thyme sprigs |
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leave |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper |
4 cups reduced-sodium beef broth |
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth |
2 ounces goat cheese, at room temperature |
6 slices toasted french bread (3/8 inch slices) |
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a large dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions and salt; cook, first tossing with tongs, and when they begin to wilt, stirring occasionally with a spoon, until pale golden brown and very soft, about 35 minutes.
2. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring occasionally, until the flour is lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
3. Transfer the onions to a 5 or 6 quart slow cooker. Add thyme sprigs and pepper. Pour the broth over the onions. Cover and cook until the flavors are blended 4-5 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low. Discard thyme sprigs when done.
4. Combine the cheese and thyme leaves in a bowl. Spread the cheese mixture over the bread slices. Ladle the soup into bowls, top each serving with a bread slice.
