Ingredients

French Onion Soup

  • 2 slices French bread
  • 1 TBSP Unsalted butter
  • 1 large Onion thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 4 cups Beef broth
  • ½ tsp Dried thyme
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • ½ cup Gruyère cheese shredded

Cucumber Water

  • ½ Cucumber sliced
  • 24 oz Water cold

Egg Salad Sandwich

  • 2 Eggs
  • 2 slices Sourdough bread lightly toasted
  • 2 TBSP Mayonnaise use as needed
  • 1 tsp Fresh dill chopped
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup Baby spinach
  • 2 slices Tomato
  • 1 TBSP Red onion sliced thin or shaved thin

Instructions

  • Prepare the ingredients as instructed above.
  • Toast the french bread. Then set aside.
  • Melt the Butter: In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
  • Sauté the Onions: Add the sliced onion and sauté until caramelized, about 15 - 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for an additional 1 - 2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add Broth and Thyme: Pour in the beef broth and add the dried thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Infuse Cucumber Water: In a pitcher, add thinly sliced cucumber to cold water. Stir well and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
  • Prepare Egg Salad: Add the eggs to a saucepan and fill it with cold water. Bring water to a boil, and boil eggs for 8 minutes (it's helpful to set a timer).
  • Toast the bread until lightly golden brown.
  • Take the eggs out of the water and run them under cold water to cool them.
  • Peel the eggs, chop, and add them to a bowl. Mix in mayo as needed for a creamy consistency and season with dill, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Preheat the oven broiler.
  • Assemble Soup for Broiling: Ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls. Top each bowl with a slice of toasted French bread and sprinkle the shredded Gruyère cheese generously over the bread.
  • Broil Soup: Place the bowls under the broiler for 2 - 3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Assemble Sandwich: While the soup is broiling, assemble the egg salad sandwich. Layer the bread with spinach, tomato, onion, and egg salad on bread. Cut in half.
  • Serve: Remove the soup from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve the French onion soup alongside half of the egg salad sandwich and cucumber water.
