I first made this recipe for hubby years ago on his birthday. It was a side dish for a larger recipe, but we both decided this was the only part of the recipe worth repeating! If you like onions, check out this delicious way to serve them as a side dish for your next killer meal!

I bake these in my toaster oven when I’m only making two. The actual stuffed onions don’t keep as well as leftovers, so I tend to only make as much as we’ll eat in one night. If you increase the recipe to make more you’ll need to put them in your regular oven.

You can add them to the oven with other items like turkeys or roasts. You may need to increase baking time by up to a half hour if they’re sharing the heat.

Wrap them in foil to protect them from burning or spilling while they bake.
