[email protected]I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, so I used cheddar cheese in my croutons instead. It was still really good!
Larry Hyatt
[email protected]This soup was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just because I didn't caramelize the onions long enough. Next time I'll cook them for a bit longer.
