Notes
The onions bothered my eyes a lot, because of the quantity. If you can get past that, this is a really yummy sandwich!! One trick I’ve discovered for peeling is to peel them under running water. Helps a little with the crying. 🙂
The filling would also be a good chip or cracker dip. It could be good added to scrambled eggs.
