Yummy! I used Vidalia onions and butter, 2 percent milk, panko crumbs. Made for ZWT 6 Thanks Brenda.

Loved this! Delicious and easy. Used Vidalia onions and omitted the breadcrumbs (I just don't really like them on top of things). Living in Georgia, we get loads of Vidalia onions, and this is a great way to use them. Thanks for posting.

Onions, cheese and butter; how can you go wrong? This was excellent. I used Vidalia onions. I wondered if the onions would be tender since they were not precooked and they turned out perfectly tender. I'll make this again. Thanx!

Wonderful! This was reduced to serve 2. I did not have self-rising flour so I used some homemade bisquick. The breadcrumbs were my <a href="/102062">Seasoned Breadcrumb Mix</a>. The only change I made was to put the dish under the broiler for a few minutes to lightly brown.

A terrific recipe Brenda! I made a full recipe & used all-purpose flour I converted to self-rising per the RZ Kitchen Dictionary info & added only garlic (which I almost always do). We love onions & our friends do as well, so I foresee this dish being repeated for a dinner party ... perhaps w/mushrooms added to the mix. Thx for sharing this keeper w/us.
