We love both French onion soup and tomato soup, but this was not what I hoped for in a soup. I actually took the leftover soup, strained it, and plan to use it for spaghetti sauce later this week.

This is a very unique recipe. I've had french onion soup with tomato in it before, this was more of a tomato soup with onions in it. It's sweet, but a little too thick. Don't think I'll make again, but I don't regret trying it.

Scrumptous! Vegetable boullion cubes worked as a good substitute. The crouton and cheese were delicious, but the soup is just as good without it.
