I have always loved to cook. Ever since I can remember I loved looking at cookbooks and trying out new recipes. Some were successful, others not so much. I often get teased by my family because of an attempt at Swedish Meatballs. Something went terribly wrong and I will never live it down. I think it get's brought up at every family gathering. This blog is an attempt for me to share some of my favorite recipes. If I remember I will include a picture. So here goes...

Mimi's Famous French Onion Soup
2 Tablespoons butter
2 pounds yellow onions, halved and sliced
4 cans beef broth (14 oz)
1 can beef consomme
1/4 Cup Romano Cheese, grated
salt and pepper to taste
Melt the butter ina heavy-bottomed pot and saute onions over medium low heat until they soften and turn golden brown. Keep stirring so they don't burn. Add beef stock and simmer for 10 minutes. Whisk grated cheese into soup and season with salt and pepper.
Pour into ovenproof soup crocks. Top with toasted sliced French bread and grated cheese (Gruyere, Mozzarella, Swiss or Parmesan). Broil until cheese melts and remove from oven.
