Very good. I sprinkled some caraway seeds on top - personal preference.<br/>Next time I will mix the egg/cream mixture into the onions as it didn't really penetrate the dish but just sat on top.<br/>Thanks. -
My husband loved this .. I recommend using recipe #28943 for the crust, it was very good .. thanks for a good recipe! -
This was so much better than I was expecting, hit the spot big time! I also used egg beaters and fat free sour cream. -
What a good way to use Vidalia onions! I made it with Egg-beaters, Louis Rich turkey bacon and low-fat sour cream and it was delicious. 10 minutes before it was done I covered the top with thin slices of fresh tomato. This is a very nice lunch entree. Thanks, Carole in Orlando
