*Made for Australia N/Z Swap #42* Had some lovely vidalias, and this was quick and tasty ! The balsamic gives just a tad of sweetness, and I was sorry I had only prepared 2 ! Thanks for posting, ChefTraceyMae

Ohh my goodness, loved these! I misread the directions and cut the onions in half.... oops Ahh well didnt matter just cut the cooking time down a little and continued on. These little beauties still turned out a treat, such wondeful flavours from the balsamic vinegar... so delcious and so very easy! I served with a roast and the family thoroughly enjoyed these Tracey Mae. Thanks You so much for posting, my onions will be made this way from now on! Thanks again.
