Notes
If you're following a gluten-free diet you can still enjoy this dish without sacrificing taste. Some onion soup mixes may contain gluten for thickening purposes. To keep your potatoes gluten-free choose a certified gluten-free onion soup mix or create your own mixture using dried onion flakes, garlic powder and a bit of gluten-free bouillon. Your taste buds and stomach will appreciate this adjustment.
