Onion Soup and Beef Pot Pie





Cold winter weather called for French Onion Soup. Definitely a favorite soup for us. We then made Onion Soup Gratinee from The Balthazar Cookbook by McNally, Nasr, Hanson. Once while Cathy and I were walking around in New York City it started to rain. We couldn’t catch a cab in the rain and luckily we saw a restaurant across the street. It was Balthazar. It was just like stepping into a Paris Bistro on a cold winter day. It was warm, and smelled wonderful and was very welcoming. We love the fact that their food and their cookbook allows us to recreate that magical moment. 

We had a frozen Beef and Ale Pot Pie from Friends and Family. It was delicious and as you can tell by looking at it, it had a fantastic Crust! They don't always sell these, if you are in Friends and Family and they have one, snap it up!
