French Onion Soup (AIP)

I love a good soup. Usually soup recipes are flexible, soup tastes so comforting, and it only uses one pot!

Living in Hawai’i I only make soup a few months of the year because it is too warm. But you can bet if it is winter I’m making soup a few times a week.

This recipe is SUPER easy made in the Instant Pot. Only a few ingredients and absolutely delicious. Simple is usually best when it comes to highlighting an ingredient.

This recipe is based on the Autoimmune Protocol but you can add a few non-AIP items if you tolerate them.

Onions are very healthy:

• Improve immune function

• Loaded with vitamins

• Reduces cancer risk

• Lowers cholesterol

• Improves bone health

• Stabilizes blood sugar

• Antibacterial

• Brain healthy

Hope you enjoy.
