Spring Onion Soup with Garlic Croutons image

A chicken broth base makes this a little lighter than French onion soup. Buttery homemade croutons are the crowning touch.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 cup 3/4-inch cubes day-old French bread (crusts removed)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 medium white onion, finely chopped (1/2 cup)

2 tablespoons chicken soup base (from 8-oz jar)

Stir in water, soup base, green onions and pepper. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 10 minutes. Stir before serving.
