- Top with croutons, or toasted french bread and vegan cheese.
- Broil until cheese melts or is light brown
Traditionally French onion soup is served topped with a slice of toasted French bread with a Gruyère or swiss cheese on top. There are a lot of great vegan cheeses out there, so you should be able to find a great one!
Tips and ideas:
ONLY use a broth you know and like! Frontier brand, or knorr vegi broth cubes are my favorite. They add umami, but not spice!
