Healthy French Onion Soup
Savor the rich, deep flavors of caramelized onions slowly simmered in a savory low sodium beef broth, enhanced with lean sirloin strips, a crisp whole grain baguette slice, and a hint of reduced-fat Swiss cheese. Finished with a dollop of tangy nonfat Greek yogurt, this healthy twist on the classic French onion soup delivers a nourishing and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
2 medium Yellow Onions
2 cloves Garlic
2 cups Low Sodium Beef Broth
4 ounces Lean Beef Sirloin
1 slice Whole Grain Baguette
0.5 ounce Reduced-Fat Swiss Cheese
1/4 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt
3 sprigs Fresh Thyme
1 Bay Leaf
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the thinly sliced onions and minced garlic, stirring occasionally until they begin to soften.
Reduce heat and allow the onions to caramelize slowly for 25-30 minutes, stirring every few minutes to prevent burning.
While the onions are cooking, lightly season and brown the lean beef sirloin in a separate pan over medium-high heat until just cooked, then thinly slice or shred the beef.
Once the onions are deeply caramelized, add the low sodium beef broth, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf to the pot. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for an additional 10 minutes to meld the flavors.
Stir in the cooked beef, then remove the thyme and bay leaf.
Ladle the soup into bowls and place a slice of whole grain baguette on top of each serving.
Sprinkle the reduced-fat Swiss cheese over the baguette, then broil for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Finish each bowl with a dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt before serving to add a creamy tang.
Serve hot and enjoy your healthy twist on classic French Onion Soup.
