Sweet grilled Vidalia onions make a wonderful addition to a nice green salad or tomatoes.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 4 to 6 Servings

Ingredients:

  • 2 large (about 1-1/2 pounds) Vidalia Onions cut in 8 (1/2 inch thick) slices
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons honey or brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Preheat outdoor grill or broiler. Place Vidalia Onion slices on a grill or broiler pan.

Serve, if desired, on a bed of spinach leaves topped with chopped tomatoes and drizzled with dressing.
