When fiwit was not feeling well, lovemyhouse suggested that she make this easy soup...
Mary, rough chop an onion, throw it in a pan with some butter or margarine (garlic, too, if you want), let them get good and translucent trending toward caramel color. Then pour a can of beef broth in the pan (you can use chicken but it doesn't taste nearly as good). Let simmer for about 10 minutes. Scoop onions into ovenproof bowl, pour soup over. Put a slice of toasted rough bread like a French bread on top. Cover with Swiss or Provolone cheese. Stick in a toaster over or under a broiler until cheese is golden. Eat and feel MUCH better.
