Onion casseroles (onion as main ingredient) (mustard, nutmeg, caraway, pepper)

[Katsmeeyow]

I love onions, Vidalias are one of my favorites (which is probably a good thing as I don't live too far from Vidalia!)

I have a vidalia onion casserole and a dip that I simply love!

Any of ya'll know some good onion recipes?

Vidalia Dip

1 Large Vidalia onion coarsely chopped
1 Cup Mayo
3 Cups Swiss Cheese - shredded
1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt and Pepper (your taste)

Mix well. Pour into pie plate(s) and bake at 350 for about 20 minutes. Just check and see if it looks lightly brown on top.

Serve with crackers.

This is a good recipe for an onion pie very similar to onion pies that are found in Germany.

6 pounds sweet onions, sliced
4 slices bacon
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
4 eggs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon caraway seed or 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
2 recipes pastry for a 9 inch single crust pie

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F . Line a jelly-roll pan or large pizza pan with prepared dough, making sure dough extends up sides of pan.

Saute onion in a until translucent and pour cooked onion into a large mixing bowl. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, chop and add to onion; mix well.

Stir in sour cream. Beat eggs enough to break up yolks, then mix in to pie mixture. Add flour to thicken mixture (onions will create a lot of water), then add salt. Mix well and pour mixture into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with caraway seed, or nutmeg

Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until onions start to turn golden brown on top.

I've made it with ham when I did not have any bacon and it is just as good.
