GRILLED SWEET ONIONS



Grilled Sweet Onions image

These onions are so delicious, we prepare them all year long-on the grill in summer, or in an oven preheated to 350° for the same amount of time in winter. A small salad, a slice of bread, these grilled onions, and you've got a great light meal. -Mary Bilke, Eagle River, Wisconsin
