I brought this to a potluck and the dish was scraped clean. Everyone loved it. I used one cup of Monterey Jack and one cup of Gruyere for a little extra flavor. Next time I may try adding a bit of gorgonzola.

Many thanks to Giovanna!! This is fabulous I just served this at our Easter dinner (with ham) and everyone in my family enjoyed it most had seconds. We are all pretty much onion lovers anyway but never have I had onions fixed this way. I followed the recipe to a tee I did strain the onions because there was quite a bit of liquid in the pan that I thought should not end up in the sauce...glad I did it was just perfect!!!
This recipe rated 5 stars with me - and I'm a hard marker! It came out of the oven hot and creamy - slightly browned on the top. The family raved about it - even my daughter who dislikes onions. Used Ritz crackers rather than breadcrumbs. I think the secret to making this dish is to cook the sliced onions with a gentle saute first - take your time! When they start becoming translucent - thats when they are ready. This receipe will be a keeper in this house.
I made this for a famly dinner three Chrismas's ago. I've been asked to make it every Chrismas since and I believe everyone in the family has asked me for the recipe. Over the years I have tweaked it a bit to my own liking. I double the white sauce and don't add the cheese to it. I layer the cheese in with the rest of the layers ending with cheese on top. If you like onions you'll love this!
We love onions but found that when made according to the recipe this one comes up short. The cheese sauce was a little gooey from the flour and when finished baking the onions were not cooked enough. Perhaps I need more details in the directions about what to expect at various stages. All is not lost though as I may try it again with my own little tweeks like carmelizing the onions first and thinning the cheese sauce.
I made this recipe for Thanksgiving and everyone raved about it. It was fast easy and absolutely delicious. The only thing I would add the next time would be a touch of paprika or cayenne to add a little zip.
I made this without any changes and it was pretty good. I think my wife liked it better than I. Next time instead of using bread crumbs I will use Ritz Cracker crumbs instead. That will give it a little more pazaaz!
I thought this was good maybe a little bland but husband RAVED. I used some ailing garlic tostini as my seasoned breadcrumbs. Will definitely make again but might try to "doctor" a little.
I've made this twice. First time cooked onions as directed and the whole thing was runny. Second time I put the onions in the crockpot overnight drained them and then made the casserole and got rave reviews. Numerous people asked for the recipe. I'll definitely make again!
