Hi everyone; I hope your Thanksgiving was special and filled with love, and that you had plenty to be thankful for. As for me, I'm posting a recipe my aunt brought, because it totally made my Thanksgiving meal. It was unexpected and delicious, and I vow to make these at least twice a year in my own kitchen from now on. Are you ready? The sleeper hit of Thanksgiving this year was none other than...
POPPY SEED ONIONS
Ingredients:
6 medium onions, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 Tbsp. poppy seeds
1 (4-oz.) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup milk
Directions:
Separate sliced onions into rings and place in a 1-quart casserole. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and poppy seeds. Blend cream cheese with milk until smooth (a hand-held electric mixer works great for this; otherwise a simple wire whisk will do the job). Pour milk mixture over onions; cover and bake at 350 degrees for one hour.
OK, maybe it didn't knock everyone's socks off, but it sure was a hit with me. We don't have a lot of onion lovers in our family. I guess Aunt Cheri and I are cut from the same cloth in that regard. I always think her dishes are unique and tasty, even if most people think they're weird. Enjoy this recipe - I'm off to find some dental floss to get the poppy seeds out of my teeth.
Love,
Jess
