RISP ONIONS ARE ONE OF nature's original health foods.
Valued throughout history for their healing powers, these root vegetables add important nutrients, and valuable phytochemicals and antioxidants to your diet.
Sliced into salads, simmered in sauces or chopped into salsas, onions are not only good to eat but also good for you.
SERVING IDEAS:
Wilted Spinach Salad: Toss crisp fresh spinach leaves with hot caramelized onions, sundried tomatoes and pine nuts. Drizzle with warmed vinaigrette dressing and toss well.
Enchilada Stack with an Attitude: Layer a corn tortilla with black or pinto beans, diced bell pepper, dabs of salsa, grated sharp cheddar cheese and a layer of caramelized onions. Repeat layering then top with a third tortilla. Sprinkle with cheese and bake until hot and melted.
HELPFUL HINT
Remove the smell of onions from your hands or cooking equipment by rubbing them with lemon juice (or salt, if the pots or pans are made of aluminum, cast iron, or carbon-steel).
