Sweet Onion
Are you craving something reminiscent of French Onion soup
but looking for a new texture? Give this Sweet Onion Casserole a try. Perfect freezer meal if you are meal prepping.
You can use any onion that suits your taste. I have used red onion, a yellow onion, and a sweet little Vidalia onion. Give them a shot. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. If you want to turn up the heat, try a jalapeno. If you want to go tropical, use a Maui or Vidalia onion, but I warn you the yellow onion will take over the blend. It is so strong it will kick your butt! I like mine tame, so I choose reds and yellows.
