French Onion Soup with Meatballs image

I got the idea for how to make this soup after I went to a brewhouse restaurant that put ale in their gravy. I make this every time the weather starts to cool down in the fall-it's comfort food for the soul. -Crystal Holsinger, Surprise, Arizona

I'm not a fan of this soup. I found it to be too oily and the meatballs were a bit dry.

This soup is delicious, but it's a bit too rich for my taste. I'll probably use less butter and cream next time.

This soup was a hit! The meatballs were so flavorful and tender, and the broth was rich and flavorful. I loved the addition of the Gruyère cheese, which gave the soup a nice cheesy flavor.
