Dietetic Onion Soup

Weather like this that makes you want to curl up under the covers and stay there deserves a nice, piping hot stew. But who would think we'd have 65 degrees and HUMID in the middle of December?? In New York?? Unheard of! But, I still need some sort of soup to warm the soul and entice me to get out of my pj's.

I created this recipe a while ago, and it's been a hit ever since. Add a slice of my spelt bread, and voila! Delicious lunch.

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of the soup, but it truly is delicious, and low fat.



Dietetic Onion Soup

2 Spanish onions, sliced
2 large red onions, sliced
6-8 cloves garlic, peeled and left whole
3 cubes frozen parsley
3 cubes frozen dill
salt and pepper to taste
water to cover

Add everything to a 4 quart pot, and add water to cover. Bring to a boil. Lower the flame and let it simmer for about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

When the soup is done, allow it to cool and blend it with an immersion blender and reheat.

Optional - add some shredded mozzarella before serving, along with a slice of toasted bread.
