Ingredients

  • 2 white or yellow onions sliced thin
  • 2 tbsp ghee or butter
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 3 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 4 cups beef broth can sub vegetable broth, if preferred
  • 12 oz box Jovial gluten free farfalle or pasta of choice
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese omit or use DF shreds for dairy free

Instructions

  • Heat the ghee or butter over medium high heat in a large skillet.
  • Add the sliced onions and salt and saute, stirring often, for about 30 minutes until they are browned and caramelized.
  • Add in the garlic and coconut aminos and stir, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Pour in the beef broth and pasta and stir. Cook over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring often, until the pasta is cooked through and some of the broth has cooked off.
  • Add in the cheese (if using) and stir.
  • Serve topped with fresh parsley and enjoy!

Notes

Expert Tips

  • Adding Protein: I recommend shredded rotisserie chicken. You can also add cooked ground beef or chicken at the end and stir it in with the cheese. Heat over medium-low until cooked through, and enjoy!
  • Pasta: Feel free to substitute your favorite gluten-free or regular pasta. There are so many options out there for gluten-free pasta. You can use chickpea pasta, brown rice pasta, and more. You can find these gluten-free and traditional pasta options in the dried pasta aisle at most grocery stores. 
  • Wine: Some recipes call for sherry vinegar and/or dry white wine for the sauce, but I omitted this ingredient, and it turned out so delicious! You won't miss the wine at all.
  • Al Dente: For al dente pasta, taste the pasta at around 9 minutes and cook for one more minute at a time until the desired texture is reached.

Serving Tips

  • Serve warm by itself or with your favorite side of veggies. Garnish with parmesan cheese if desired. A side salad, roasted broccoli, or Brussels sprouts would go really well with this dish.
  • Keep in mind the serving size (for nutrition purposes) is 1/4 of the pot. 

Storage Tips

  • Store leftover French onion pasta in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat over the stove with a little olive oil or butter to loosen up the pasta. Similarly, you can reheat it in the microwave with a little butter to make it easier to stir and serve.
