I have an entire bag of onions
Why, I don't know. I use onions a lot, but um, not that many. I don't like onion soup. Is there another entree that would allow me to use a lot of them in one fell swoop? Or maybe an onion soup that doesn't have great big strands of onions in it?

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
make a pot roast and put a couple of onions in the bottom.
But you can store them in cool dark closet in pantyhose for months at a time without them sprouting. Just knot the hose between each onion and cut off an onion as needed |

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
Pot roast, as CTL suggested is great, or a stir fry could use a lot. Also, you can chop and freeze them.

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
What she said. Any onion or pepper that makes its way into our house gets chopped up and frozen asap. Makes things much easier later on--omlettes are a breeze to put together now.

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
I have a peanut butter chicken recipe that uses 3-4 onions. I'll type it if you want it.

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
This recipe was recommended here earlier in the week. I haven't tried it, but it meets your criteria.

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
I use this recipe as an insperation:
http://southernfood.about.com/od/ing.../bl90911a4.htm I cook the onions in the fat, add salt/pepper and bullion. add flour and slowly add milk (like making gravy) until its still thickish then cool and freeze. I like to freeze it in my jumbo muffin tins before transfering to a ziploc bag so I have recipe sized portions.

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
I do what Abbi does. And I want to eat with Rabbit from now on.
I have nothing to add except I read the thread title as "I have an entire bag of emotions" and couldnt' figure out how eating onions would make one emotional/unstable. |

Re: I have an entire bag of onions
I got such a taste for onions from this thread I went and made myself three scrambled eggs, and heaped them over with this, all sauteed until golden and sweet and fabulous, all coarse chopped: half a jumbo onion, half a red bell pepper, a third a cup of cubed turkey breast (previously roasted). And then I topped the whole plate with a diced roma tomato, garlic, salt and pepper.
My tummy is full of happy. |
