French Onion Soup and Quiche

Recent cooking adventures...

Spinach and Mushroom Quiche. (It was delicious-best warm but good cold.)

The start of the onion soup-browning the onions in butter. (Not looking very brown yet.)

Homemade croutons. (Here's a chance to use the broil feature on your oven!)

Golden onion soup. (Color aided by the addition of beef stock.)



Finished French Onion Soup topped with Swiss cheese and croutons. (It was wonderful!)

The recipe is really similar to a lot of French Onion Soup recipes that you can find on the web. Pioneer Woman has a wonderful version that's almost identical to the recipe we used except we used Swiss and not Guyere and left out the wine, garlic and Worcestershire sauce. As you can see from the pictures we're still fiddling with the camera. These were the best shots out of dozen of tries. Thank goodness we don't have to buy film!
