I thought this was a wonderful dish. It needs to be served hot - right out of the oven in order to fully appreciate the creamy sauce. Read More

I don't know if I did something wrong or what but this was not very good for us. It was messy and just didn't look appetizing at all. It smelled wonderful but we ended up throwing it out. May try again to see if we get the same results because everyone else seems to enjoy it. Read More

I made this dish to serve with our Thanksgiving Dinner and it was great. Very easy to make. I sauted the onions early and finished the dish later. Sprinkled with paprika and parsley for color it was a big hit. Thank you. Read More

I served as a side dish at Thanksgiving looking for something to make that I already had ingredients for. I added garlic wine bacon mushrooms and some mozzarella to the onion mixture as well as parm on top. I substituted milk and flour for the cream. It was a hit! Read More
