Creamy Vidalia Onion Casserole Recipe
I recommend cooking the onions for about 10 minutes or until they’re soft before assembling the casserole. This mellows the flavor.
As well, I highly recommend you seek out Vidalia onions or other sweet onions for this casserole.
I love crackers mixed with butter as a topping for casseroles as you can probably tell by my Squash Casserole and Corn Casserole. However, cheese would be an alternate topping. Cheddar, Colby, Havarti, or any good melty cheese would make a splendid topping.
When adding cheese, top the casserole with the cheese the last 10 minutes of cooking. The cheese should be melted and bubbly and starting to brown on the top.

I’m questioning the nutritional content. I have kidney disease and must strictly limit my potassium and am just lost trying to follow these numbers! How many servings? Are these numbers absolutely correct? I would love to try this recipe but too much potassium could really hurt me – though I can’t follow where it’s coming from in this recipe. I would really appreciate help with this – thanks so much!!

I didn’t realize the serving size wasn’t in the recipe. I have updated it. Those numbers are calculated by a program depending on the ingredients that I put in. They should be fairly accurate but can vary from brand to brand.

I’m a little confused on the amount of flour you used. 1 tablespoon, when do the other two get added?
Paula says
That was a typing error, sprinkle all 3 tablespoons over the onions.
Cheryl Sutton says
Am I reading this recipe wrong? I am assuming you meant onions on stovetop. Also the recipe calls for 3 Tablespoons of flour, but you only mention 1 Tbsp in the directions.
