Vidalia onions are by far my favorite onion. I just love the sweetness. I substitute them for white onions in many of the dishes I make. When they are in season I buy them like they were the last things on earth. Roasted Vidalia onions is one of my favorite side dishes. It’s a bit different. The only sad part is that these onions are only available for a short time each year.
Sweet Wonderful Onion Taste
Roasted Vidalia onions taste just like French onion soup. They cook up tender and juicy. And since you’re using Vidalia onions they have a nice sweetness to them. If by chance you have any leftover onion, just slice and toss onto your next burger!
Grilled avocados are crazy-good too.
