Walkabout Soup

This is a creamy onion soup that's like the
Walkabout soup served at the Outback.
Perfect soup for a winter day.
It's very easy to prepare. You'll need:
beef bouillon cubes, onions, flour, salt, pepper, 
cream, and shredded cheese. 
It's been in my recipe basket for over 15 years.
 If you can boil water
and slice an onion, you can make this soup.
Bring 8 cups of water and 8 bouillon cubes to a boil.
 Add the onions salt and pepper.
Simmer covered for 1 hour.
 Then gradually whisk in the flour.
The lumps will dissolve with an additional
 30 minutes of cooking.
Whisk until smooth.
Add the cream.
 Whisk to blend
 Stir in the cheese.
Let simmer another 5-10 minutes.
Serve!
My grandchildren loved this soup.
 Just remember to call it
Walkabout Soup and don't mention the onions.
