Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter
1 onion, thinly sliced

1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1/2 cup fat free half and half
Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:

1	In soup pot over medium heat, melt butter. Add onions and apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes.
