INGREDIENTS
2 medium Yellow Onions (220g total)
2 cups Low Sodium Vegetable Broth (480ml)
1 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt (245g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (4.5g)
1 slice Whole Wheat Baguette (28g)
1 oz Gruyere Cheese (28g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your broiler or oven to a high setting for toasting the crostini later.
Thinly slice the yellow onions. In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
Add the onions and sauté slowly on low to medium heat, stirring occasionally until they become soft and take on a deep golden color, about 20-25 minutes.
Once the onions are caramelized, pour in the low sodium vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow the flavors to meld for about 10 minutes.
Stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt off the heat to achieve a creamy, tangy finish. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
While the soup is finishing, prepare the crostini by placing the slice of whole wheat baguette on a baking sheet. Top with the Gruyere cheese and toast under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
Ladle the rich soup into bowls and serve warm with the Gruyere crostini on top or on the side. Enjoy this lighter take on a French classic!
