Onion Soup Marsala

Submitted by Dedee Royale

"I've always loved onion soup but hate having to spend a lot of money eating it at a restaurant whenever I'm in the mood for it. My recipe is not only cheap to make, but quick and easy. I can whip this up in about 20 minutes. It's also a great company dish or just to enjoy on a cold fall or winter evening."
