French Onion Soup


This week marks our one month anniversary for "Weekends with Paula Deen". I decided to make the table scape a bit more festive for the occasion, with Violas and menu cards. I even had to buy new glass ware, cloth napkins and even a Paula Deen fluted pie dish! So, you know what that means pie next week for dessert! Cathy's sister-in-law Grace joined us for the second week in a row and she chose this recipe to prepare. This recipe called for Vidalia onions they were out of season, unlike in "Paula" country where they are most likely available all year (Vidalia onions were started by two college students in Georgia, just a little trivia from Grace). The recipe called for stew meat, which is unusual for French Onion Soup, it really added a great deal of flavor. This recipe called for making this soup in a slow cooker which makes this very easy to prepare! Enjoy!
