This recipe is for you if you are looking for a nutritious soup with fantastic health benefits. I’m a big fan of paleo, and I love this soup. This hearty Paleo French onion soup is gluten- and dairy-free and loaded with ingredients that will increase your body’s antioxidant potential.

Foods with high acidities, such as onions, lemon juice, white vinegar, white wine, and tomato sauce, can help invigorate weak bones and other broths. «The acidity of these ingredients helps complement and enhance the broth’s flavor, not mask it. But be sure to use these ingredients sparingly because you don’t want a very sour taste,» Norton says. Lemon goes well with chicken stock, vinegar goes well with beef stock, and white wine goes well with broth when making a sauce.

The only problem is I wouldn’t say I like to eat onions all the time. So I made a recipe with a twist, which turned out pretty Yummy. I used a mix of French onion and garlic, adding some fresh ginger and cilantro. You can use regular onions if you prefer something other than the onion part.
