Ingredients:
| 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil |
| 2 yellow onions, thinly sliced |
| 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
| 2 cups water |
| 2 cloves garlic, minced |
| 2 1/2 teaspoons flour |
| 1 cup beef broth |
| 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
| 4 thin slices French bread, toasted |
| 2 tablespoons grated Swiss cheese |
| 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese |
Directions:
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, thyme, and 1 tablespoon of water. Cover; cook for 5 minutes. Uncover; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until onions are golden, stirring, about 15 minutes.
