2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1.5 lbs onions
3/4 cup dry white wine or any white you have
1 tomato or 1/2 cup of any type of canned tomato ( I used chili ready)
4 cups chicken broth
1 oz thinly sliced prosciutto chopped (I used 1 oz of regular bacon)
1/2 tsp dried thyme
Melt butter with oil, add onions and saute until golden brown, about 20 minutes. add wine simmer until wine evaporates, about 4 minutes. add tomato and saute 1 minute. ( remove from heat transfer 1 cup onion mixture to blender. add 1 cup chicken broth and puree until smooth. return puree to the pot.) I eliminate the part in parenthesis. add remaining 3 cups broth, chopped prosciutto, and thyme. bring soup to boil. reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer 30 minutes to blend flavors.
Onions about five minutes before adding wine.The other ingredients.
Dylan and Lois will now embark on there weekly feeding frenzy. (apple, banana, peaches, snap pea crisps, pear, cereal, cheese, crackers, juice, milk...more but I can't remember in my weakened state)
Snap pea crisps! So exciting!
Look at me. I'm winning!
Silly Dylan. I'm winning!During this wonderful display I was able to finish the soup recipe and make banana bread.
