Vegan French Onion Soup

6-8 Whole onions cut into slices
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tsp. cracked black pepper
1-2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
6 cubes Knorr Vegetable bouillon
10 cups hot water
1 teaspoon Cumin
4 bay leaves
1 teaspoon Garlic salt
 (Optional-Gluten Free bread  and dairy free cheese for topping the soup when done)

Peel onion and then cut into slices.  Place oil in large skillet and turn heat to medium high.  Add onions and pepper to skillet and sauté for about 10 minutes until onions are still crisp tender.  Add paprika to onions and stir well.  Add bouillon cubes to a large crock pot then pour in hot water and stir well with a wire whisk.  Add onions to bouillon mixture and then add cumin, bay leaves,  worcestershire sauce and garlic salt.  Cook on high in crock pot for 4-6 hours.  Pour soup into ramekins and top with bread and cheese and put in oven at 400 degrees until cheese is melted.  

I made this today for my family.  My daughter is a Vegan who is also Gluten Free so I try to make some things she can eat.  This recipe turned out really well!  I worked at a place today where I had an hour long break so I came home and sauteed the onions and added them to the crock pot and set it on high while I was at work.  I chose to use french bread and shredded mozzarella cheese on mine (which is pictured here).  My daughter used her Light Tapioca Bread and her dairy free cheese on hers.
