If you are and onion lover this recipe is for you.  My husband Don just loves onions and likes me to add them to everything.  This recipe was my Mom's that she received I think from my Aunt Barbara as it is written on a memo pad with the company name that she worked for.  This is a good recipe for the month of October because if I remember right the onions are harvested that month in Texas.  They have a number I couldn't remember but looked up on the internet.  It's a 1015 a very sweet onion grown in Texas.  My Dad and his wife now live in Texas part of the year so when they come home we can request they bring the mild and delicious l015 back to Michigan.  I don't know how I got off on this recipe story but to bring back the memories of it I remember the smell in my Moms kitchen when these were in the oven.  I know my mom must have used Vidalia onions for the recipe but my Aunt Barbara uses the sweet l015 from texas.  My personal opinon is that any sweet onion would work.  Enjoy this fragrant side dish anytime you see sweet onions on sale at your market.
