This week's Wednesday with Donna Hay is hosted by Kayte, who chose Donna's French Onion Soup from Modern Classics I.
Now, y'all will know that I am not much of a soup fan, and I was kind of hesitant wth this one. I made a quarter of a recipe on Sunday night, enough just for two serves, and put it in the fridge for another day, as I was already really full from late brunch with friends.
On Monday night, I reluctantly trotted out half a serve and reheated it for a minute or so in the microwave. Then I had a spoonful - and then another - and by golly, I really liked this soup. Who knew - and especially onion soup??

I've always been scared of onion soup, but this makes me want to try it!
Ooops, I forgot you didn't like soup very much when I picked this. Well, maybe it was okay as you liked it, so that makes me feel better. When I picked it I gave everyone a chance to bow out and I would pick another recipe as so many people don't like onions, etc. and I knew I would make it nevertheless as I try ALL FOS recipes that come my way!! This was a good one...and it gets better as the days go on so you are smart to have let it sit awhile before eating it!
I am glad you liked this. So did I but I love soups and I particularly love onion soup although I have never made French ONion.
Looks delicious. Glad you tried it!
the more good soups you have the more you will grow to love it - well here's hoping! I love soups - so quick and easy and yummy but lots of people don't like it - probably haven't had enough of the good ones - ok rant over!
glad you enjoyed it
I love this soup especially when it is really rich. In fact I love everything but cutting up the onions :P
