I've had this recipe for a few years and I love it. It is a great compliment to any roast meal and especially nice for the holidays. If you aren't into butter, sautee the onions in olive oil and omit buttering the bread. It still comes out great. Evaperated milk (low fat or regular) compliments the sweetness of the onions. I have also used different creamed soups...cream of onion is really nice...and substituted worchestershire for the soy sauce. Sprinkle a little more swiss cheese for the last few minutes of baking.

Heavenly is right Meli! My only change was using buttered bread crumbs as a topping instead of the Italian bread. Added some garlic powder and black pepper to the onions as they sauteed. Delicious and thanks!

I made this over the holidays and at dinner I was satisfied but not overly impressed. But WOW, once reheated it was delish, so comforting. I think by myself I went through the leftovers in a matter of a couple days. I will try to make lower in fat next time and scale the servings down for a regular week night meal. You should really try this one!
