Here is a yummy recipe that is super easy, cheap, delicious, and healthy (WW 3 pts). What more could you ask for?

French Onion and Roasted Garlic Soup
1 garlic bulb
1 T olive oil
3-5 yellow onions (depending on size and how oniony you want it!)
1/4 dry Marsala (you can omit this, but it is good with it you can always buy the cheap stuff)
4 cups of fat free beef broth
4 T shredded Gruyere cheese (I use Parmesan)

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Wrap garlic bulb in foil and bake until softened, about 45 minutes. Let cool, remove foil. Cut top off bulb and separate the cloves.
2. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they turn golden and begin to caramelize, about 30 minutes. Squeeze the garlic pulp into the onions, discarding the peels; stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the Marsala and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer gently, covered, 15 minutes. Serve topped with cheese.

If you have ovenproof soup crocks, replace the shredded cheese with thin slices. Ladle the soup into the crocks, top each with a slice of cheese and broil until cheese is lightly browned.I like it with crusty bread-of course that is more points though:)
