My Wife would love this...What kind of onion? Sweet, White, Red ?

 

[xcrusader]

it was a white onion... however I'm sure any kind would do just fine...

I like it with a little roast sweet potato in it.
Looks good.

The red onion would probably add a bit of heat and more raw onion flavour than the others. I find red onions don't saute like the white/yellow types.
