Sweet Onion Casserole with Crispy Topping is a unique side dish.
Overlooked as a vegetable, onions are often added to dishes rather than being the star of the dish.
This easy Thanksgiving side takes onions and turns them into the ultimate dish. One that’s full of flavor and goes with everything!
Everyone always has onions in the pantry or fridge, yet they are often chopped and added to other dishes. I do it myself, so many mid-week meals start with chopped onions. And for good reason, onions add a lot of flavor to dishes.
