Welcome to my blog! 

If I'm being entirely honest with you, I don't actually post too often on this blog, but you know if you want to follow me go for it. When I do post though, I often post recipes or random things like life updates or whatever. It's honestly just a hobby blog, anything that I'm currently into might get posted here. I also have another blog where I review things (movies, TV shows, books, mostly books) @ Anjibooks, so if you're looking for a good book or anything, definitely go check that out. 

Recipe: Easy French Onion Soup

French Onion Soup made easy-- how? Just use a crockpot. I love French Onion Soup, whenever I see it on the menu, I almost always have to get it. Now I don't even have to go out to get this decadent soup, I just have to look in my fridge, haha. I'll be honest here, I've been eating French Onion Soup for lunch everyday. Sadly, today I ate the last bit, but I'll be sure to make some again soon. 
Using the slow cooker also helps to make the soup healthier, at least a tiny bit, by cutting out the sugar needed to caramelize the onions. As to be expected with a slow cooker, this soup will take a while, but the end results are so worth it.  
You top the soup off with dry french bread and cheese. I actually happened to have made my own french bread before making this soup. It was a couple of days old, so basically perfect for topping off this soup. If you all are interested, I could share my recipe for french bread sometime as well. It's really easy and really delicious. :) 

French Onion Soup 
Ingredients: 
3lbs onions, sliced 
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 tsp salt 
64 oz reduced sodium beef broth 
1 T worchestershire sauce
1 clove of garlic, minced 
1/3 cup dry sherry 
4 sprigs fresh thyme (1 tsp dry) 
1 bay leaf 
dry french bread
cheese of your choice (I used mozzarella and parmesan) 

Directions: 
1. Combine onions, butter and salt in the slow cooker. Stir, and cook on low for 8 hours. (You only need half for the recipe, but you can freeze them and save them for another batch of soup or add them to any other recipes.) 
2. Remove half the onions (or leave as many as you want in your soup), and add the rest of the ingredients (minus the cheese and bread) into the slow cooker. 
3. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. 
4. Remove and discard bay leaf. 
5. Ladle soup into oven-safe bowls, top with dry bread slices and cheeses. Broil for 3-5 minutes until cheese is melted and browned. 

I hope you all enjoy this recipe as much as I did! :) Thanks for reading, 
Anj
