De Laurentiis shared the recipe on her @thegiadzy account writing that her “spin on French Onion Soup (Italian Onion Soup?) features melty fontina cheese and cubes of ciabatta (easier to eat than a thick slice of bread!)” Her words describing the dish as “ultra comforting” sum it up perfectly. Who doesn’t want cheesy, warm, aromatic soup on those frigid, winter nights? We sure know we do.

How exactly is this an “Italian” French onion soup? It’s clear in the ingredients. For bread, De Laurentiis uses cubed ciabatta, and for cheese, a melty fontina. Our mouths are watering just thinking about this one. With less than 400 calories and 14 grams of protein, how can you resist this? It may look intricate from the pictures, but don’t worry. It’s a beginner level recipe and only takes 45 minutes to prep and cook. We have a feeling this could become a winter favorite in your households, it sure will in ours.
