I can hardly believe a dish this simple can taste so decadent! Like Parsley stated in her review, I added a little Swiss in with the cheddar cheese, and dribbled a little milk over it too. This was a nice "something different" addition to our Easter buffet yesterday. YUM!

This is fantastic way to eat big Vidalia onions! I made it just as written but used shredded cheddar and swiss (probably a bit more than one cup:). I took your suggestion of dribbling some milk on top before baking. It's even better as reheated leftovers! I'm going to make this again; thanx!

My DH just raved over this onion dish; and if he's happy then I'm happy. In fact, I really liked them too, and I'm not a big onion fan. I cut back on the cheese to about 1/2 cup and that was perfect. I spooned the onions into a small pie plate which held the mixture very well and cut back on the cheese to about 1/2, which we thought was perfect. My Honey will be looking forward to eating these soon again, and I give you all the credit and thanks, Jac.
