French Onion Soup



My Dad's awesome recipe:

Sauté in butter:
1 clove garlic (or 1/8 tsp garlic powder)
2 to 3 sliced onions (not red)

Add:
1 can Campbells beef broth (I usually use 2 cans to serve 4 people)
1 tsp dijon mustard
½ tsp season salt
¼ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp lemon juice
¼ tsp ground marjoram

Croutons: Break apart stale bread and put in 350 F oven with Parmesan cheese until slightly browned.

Pour soup into oven-safe bowls. Layer with mozzarella cheese in the middle, then croutons, and another layer of mozzarella on top. Put the bowls on a cookie sheet to help keep your oven clean from spills. Bake at 350 F for no more than 25 minutes – less if cheese is too runny.
