Boozy Vegan French Onion Soup

This is a spin on something posted by someone named "vegan miss". I don't want to take credit where it's not due, but I changed some things to make it, well, less "maird"-y. ;P I hate bay leaves and used rosemary instead, which I love. I also divided it by four to make one serving. I recommend dividing it by two so you can have three portions of it, because now I'm left with a half-cup of soup, and WTF is the point of that?

Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 small red or white onions, diced (less crying if you throw them in the food processor
a whole lotta rosemary
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 cup brandy
4 cups vegetable broth
1/2 cup red or white wine
4-5 sprigs fresh thyme
1 fresh baguette, sliced, to serve


Directions:

1. Place pot on medium heat and add olive oil. Once melted, add the onions, rosemary, and salt and pepper.

2. Caramelize the onions for about 1/2 hour, stirring here and there so they do not stick. Add the brandy and allow to deglaze (not my word - not sure what "deglazing" is).

3. Add the broth, red wine, and thyme. Cook the soup for another 20-30 minutes.

4. While the soup is cooking, toast bread.

5. Place soup in bowl and top with the bread slice. Enjoy!
