Onion Potato Casserole (gluten free)
French onion soup is one of my very favorite soups, but after going gluten free I knew I couldn't order it at a restaurant any more. To safely enjoy french onion soup at home I had to master making it myself! I put a fun spin on this onion potato casserole by adding the french onion soup over crispy potaotes and pockets of melted cheese that taste like the original soup!This onion potato casserole recipe is gluten free, nut free and has a vegan option and dairy free option.
