Easy To Make High Protein French Onion Soup Recipe

Here's a secret...

I'm not a huge soup fan.

I love soup, but to me it feels like a part of a meal/appetizer versus being an entire meal.

But my husband loves soups and so do many of my clients.

In an effort to compromise, I'm creating soups that are hearty enough to be a full meal.

More specifically, I'm making soups that allow me to hit my protein without having a chicken breast as a side.

And that's exactly why you need to make this French Onion Soup.

It's loaded with onions, simmered in nutritionally dense bone broth, and packed with protein thanks to the bone broth and bites of steak.

Yes, steak.

What's so special about bone broth?

Bone broth is the next level of broth.

It simmers longer to allow collagen in the bones to break down into the soup.

If given the chance choose between broth (chicken or beef) or bone broth of the two, definitely go with the ladder!
