I thought this was a wonderful dish. It needs to be served hot - right out of the oven in order to fully appreciate the creamy sauce.

I don't know if I did something wrong or what, but this was not very good for us. It was messy and just didn't look appetizing at all. It smelled wonderful, but we ended up throwing it out. May try again to see if we get the same results, because everyone else seems to enjoy it.

I made this 3 years ago for a family gathering and I have been asked to bring it again every year.

Good, but very greasy. I prefer "Moms Yummy Onion Casserole" on this site.

This was very good. I think next time I will sauté a little garlic with the onions.

This was so good! My husband and I love onions, and this really hit the spot! I think next time I will add some thick hickory smoked bacon pieces. Mmmmmm!

This was totally easy to put together. My husband and I are cheese and onion lovers. This is our new (replate the boring green beans) favorite recipe for the holidays.

This was good, but makes way more than 7 servings. You only need a small spoonful. I might make it again.
