EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

A blue-veined cheese, such as blue, Gorgonzola or Stilton, would be delicious on the croutons. Use about 3/4 cup crumbled cheese instead of the Swiss cheese.

A fresh tossed salad with vinaigrette would taste great with this rich soup.

Good and onion soup is just as easy to make from fresh onions as the mix... so I agree with everyone else.

I think I will make the Cheesy Biscuit Croutons and make my own homemade "better for you" onion soup recipe. There is way too much sodium in this recipe and probably MSG in the onion soup mix too.

I actually just have a question. Can I make this recipe using the new gluten free bisquick mix too, and it will still taste good? Do I need to make any adjustments? Appreciate anyones help.
