These taste very good but next time I might try sautéeing the onions rather than putting them in raw. Because of the fat in the cheese, these will make huge, greasy mess all over your stove. You may want to cook them on an outdoor grill if you'd rather not have to clean the whole kitchen afterwards. Click the photo to see a close-up.
