Directions
  • Melt butter or margarine in a large skillet. Add onions, leeks and garlic. Stirring
    frequently, sauté 30-45 minutes over medium high heat until onions are caramelized and lightly
    golden brown.
  • Reduce heat to simmer, add beef boullion, Worcestershire sauce and
    seasonings. Cook on low for 20-25 minutes. Add wine the last 5 minutes of cooking.

    oven to 425ºF-405ºF.  Ladle soup into oven proof serving bowls. Place 2 slices of toasted
    bread on top of soup and divide shredded cheese among the bowls. Place filled bowls on a baking
