Servings: 4 people
- 2 white or yellow onions sliced thin

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.

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 ¼ 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.
