These are very good! I love the sweetness of the onions and the little bit of tang from the vinegar. Made as is and they were perfect! Made for 'When Its Hot' Tag.

My husband wolfed these down. The beans and onions could have been served separately but the combination was terrific, and beautiful in the dish to boot. Made for PAC.

A very nice way to dress up green beans. I thought the addition of brown sugar would make it a bit too sweet, but that wasn't the case at all. It was simply delightful. In our home, we love a lot of onions so I know we'll have this dish over and over again. Made for PAC Fall '08.
