Twice Baked Whole Onions

Imagine the taste of roasted onions
combined with the texture and taste
of French's canned onion rings.
These are comforting and addictive.
The first baking makes the onions all
smokey and creamy good tasting while the
second baking cooks the crispy filling.
You can make these ahead and reheat
them in a microwave oven if desired.

Ingredients:
6 whole onions, skin on
2 cups French's onion rings
24 slices of fresh mushrooms
a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
a few dashes ground black pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Wash onions if needed and pat dry.
Place onions whole in a baking dish,
drizzle with canola or olive oil.
Cover and bake for about 45 minutes.
Remove from oven and when cool enough
to handle cut the tops of the onions off.
Dig out centers to making a bowl for filling.
Place four mushroom slices in each onion.
Put in a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce.
Season with black pepper and fill each
onion with a good amount of crunchy onion rings.
Top onions with some shredded cheddar cheese.
Place back in oven and bake just until
the cheese melts, about 10 minutes more.
I cut these onions in half for easy serving.
