Why are so many restaurants famous for their French Onion Soup?

Because it's delicious!

The problem is, it's a pain to make, takes too much time, you need the right bowls...

Our solution? A Sandwich!

The key to a great French Onion Soup, and, to our sandwich, is the cheese. We use Grand Cru, a flavor packed Gruyere style from Green County (Wisconsin of course). It has a rich, nutty flavor and a beautiful melt, making it the right cheese for the soup if you decide to make it, or, the sandwich which saves you a bunch of time.

For added gusto you can take this vegetarian sandwich to the next level by dressing up your left-overs. Try adding this slices of turkey, meatloaf or prime rib.
