"I stumbled upon this when searching for a recipe to use the fennel I got from my produce co-op. It was delicious! I had to make a few substitutions because I didn't have all of the ingredients on ha..." See morend: great Northern beans for chickpeas and dried herbs for fresh. When I mixed the spices I went easy on it for the kids, but ended up adding more later. The spice combination is delicious. I had reservations as I cooked the fennel (like the previous reviewer I preferred mine softer, so I cooked them until almost caramelized-next time I will chop smaller) and wasn't sure what to think of the french onion soup, but it came together beautifully. We served ours over cooked lentils. This is definitely a keeper!"
