Elsie Too Apr 2020 11:02am, 11 Apr 2020 2,489 posts	0 Elsie Too Morrison’s essentials boxes are our life saver at the moment. This is our second so far Both had that big bag of onions so i’m going to be hunting out a recipe for onion soup
JenL Apr 2020 11:27am, 11 Apr 2020 27,877 posts	0 JenL Cheese and onion toasties? Bhajis? Onion sauce (you can freeze it). Onion rings, if you have the means to deep-fry. Use them in place of leek in soups. Quiche, if you have eggs. Onion bread is also good.

Dr PhFleecyD Apr 2020 6:29pm, 11 Apr 2020 49,356 posts	0 Dr PhFleecyD Onion tart is delicious, uses up millions of onions, best made with squidgy Italian cheese but you could improvise
Dr PhFleecyD Apr 2020 6:30pm, 11 Apr 2020 49,357 posts	0 Dr PhFleecyD I just have our excess onions to the neighbour. And a swede. Because there’s no way to cook a swede to make it taste good.

Dr PhFleecyD Apr 2020 10:04pm, 11 Apr 2020 49,366 posts	0 Dr PhFleecyD Yeah mashed swede is pretty bloody horrible. Possibly the only vegetable I don’t like!
