Ingredients

• 4 large Yellow onions
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 5 cups Low-sodium beef broth
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 leaf Bay leaf
• 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
• 0.5 cup Light shredded Swiss cheese
• 4 slices Whole grain baguette
• 1 spray Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into even rings.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the sliced onions to the pot, then sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Cook the onions for about 25-30 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are caramelized and golden brown. Reduce the heat if they start to stick or brown too quickly.

Step 5

Pour the low-sodium beef broth into the pot and stir to combine with the onions.

Step 6

Add the fresh thyme leaves and the bay leaf to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove the bay leaf before proceeding.

Step 8

Stir in the balsamic vinegar and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 9

While the soup is simmering, lightly spray the baguette slices with cooking spray and toast them in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 5-7 minutes until golden and crisp.

Step 10

Ladle the hot onion soup into four oven-safe bowls. Top each bowl with a toasted baguette slice and sprinkle with shredded Swiss cheese.

Step 11

Transfer the bowls to a baking sheet and place them under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 12

Carefully remove from the oven and serve the soup hot. Enjoy!
