A velvety onion soup is the ultimate veggie-forward comfort food. In place of classic Gruyere, we've swapped in rich and creamy Boursin cheese for the golden toasts. Dunk into the soup with each bite.

Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce.
- In a small bowl, reserve 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) cooking wine. Set aside.
- Peel, then thinly slice onion.
- Peel, then thinly slice shallot.
- Heat a large pot over medium heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) butter, then onions, leeks and shallots. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until onions soften slightly.
- Add 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until dark golden.
- To pot with onions, add sprigs of thyme, remaining wine, vegetable stock powder, Gravy Spice Blend and 3 cups (6 cups) water.
- Bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 10-12 min, stirring occasionally, until onions are very soft.
- Meanwhile, trim green beans.
- Roughly chop parlsey.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water and green beans. Cook for 5-6 min, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender.

- Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, halve buns.
- Spread Boursin over top. Transfer to an unlined baking sheet.
- Toast in the top of the oven for 3-6 min, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
- Cut each Boursin toast in half. Set aside.
- Remove and discard thyme stems from soup.
- Divide soup between bowls, and then divide green beans and cheese toast between plates.
- Sprinkle remaining parsley over top of soup.

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Many enjoyed the soup's rich taste, though some found it needed more depth; several suggested using red wine or sherry for a more authentic flavor.
- Ease of prep: Reviewers praised the recipe as simple and quick to make, delivering full flavors and aromas expected from French onion soup.
- Suggestions: Consider toasting the bread before adding Boursin to prevent sogginess; some recommended using Gruyère cheese for a more traditional melt.
- Portions: Several found the soup had too many onions compared to broth; consider adjusting the ratio for better balance.
- Pairings: While some enjoyed the green beans, others felt they were an odd pairing; croutons or a salad might be more suitable accompaniments.
