Forget about the bistro, they don't make Marijuana French Onion Soup like you can at home!
For the best, most intensely flavored onion soup, take some time and brown the onions until they are a deep mahogany brown. Baked with a baguette slice and melted cheese, this is one hearty soup. Add a salad, and you have a terrific infused meal.
Freezer Friendly!
Cool soup completely then chill before assembling as above. Cover freezer-to-oven-safe bowl with foil and freeze. Bake frozen soup at 375 degrees until hot and cheese is melted and browned, about 45 minutes.
I use cannabis infused oil to medicate this recipe. My How to Make Marijuana Oil tutorial will teach you how to make it if you don't already know.
A note about the Dosing on this recipe!
This recipe will have about 20 mg THC per serving IF you made your oil from marijuana oil from average cannabis (10% THC) and used 1/2 ounce of marijuana to make 1 cup oil. To adjust the dosage up or down to meet your personal needs and to reflect the strength of the marijuana you are cooking with and the amounts you used to make your oil, be sure to take my basic Dosing course and use the dosage calculator tools that make it quick and easy to estimate dosages (even if you are NOT cooking with lab-tested marijuana.
