French Onion Soup

There are days we simply need just a bowl of soup and a piece of  toasted bread, especially garlic bread. It goes well with any course or dish. Making them at home is no longer something far from reach. With age catching up, I noticed I eat less compared in the past. But, I also know that, bread is still very much my staple food of all. Never knew that, I could make my own French Onion soup at home. Ok ok.. I cheated, I did not boil my own beef stock. I guess with the convenience of organic beef stock cubes available in the market these days, many of us who needs a quick fix would probably go for the convenience, right??! :) 

There will always be some leftover bread in my freezer most of the time. Many a time, I would base on what I have left in the freezer to decide what would I cook for lunch. 

Mixing butter, garlic, salt, pepper and dried herbs is all I have to do to make the perfect garlic toast at home.
