FRENCH ONION SOUP 
1/4 c. butter
2 med. onion, sliced thin
4 c. hot water
1 3/8 oz. pkg. onion soup mix
2 tsp. instant beef bouillon
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
4 1/2 inch toasted French bread
1/4 c. grated Parmesan cheese
Grated Mozzarella or Provolone cheese

Combine butter and onion in 2 quart casserole. Microwave at high until onions are tender crisp, 4-6 minutes. Add water, soup mix, bouillon and Worcestershire sauce; cover. Microwave at high 5 minutes. Reduce power to medium. Microwave until onions are tender and flavors are blended, 15-20 minutes. Ladle soup into 4 serving bowls. Place toast on top. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese and desired amount of grated Mozzarella or Provolone. Microwave until cheese softens, 5-7 minutes.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
