Huh,

That is insane. Animals are tasty and have lots of B vitamins, and Biotin.

I used these weird onions to make the caramelized onions for the pizza yesterday.. they were billed as "Tuscan Onions" here.. never seen them before, we have the regular round red onions, but I have never seen this shape before.

They were very pungent, my eyes were stinging for hours afterwards, but they tasted great once they had very gently sauteed for hours and hours and been reduced to a brown sweet mass!

What the bloody hell?
 
Yes. The local stores here have these huge onions that weigh up to 15 lb each and they're sweet and perfect for onion rings. Those and the huge Idaho potatoes. My nephews love it when I make onion rings and fries when they're over.

This recipe is my own creation. I've shared it with very few people. But in the spirit of summer...

Lo-Cal Heart-Healthy Southwestern Potato Salad​

In a large bowl, combine:

6 c Yukon Gold Potatoes – peeled, boiled, and cut into ¼” slices - 408cal (6 fat)
¼ c Red Onions – diced – 12cal (1 fat)
1 Jalapeno Pepper – diced – 4cal (1 fat)
1 Avocado – peeled & chopped – 289cal (240 fat)
1 Lime – Juiced – 10cal (0 fat)

(Tip : have the lime out and ready to juice right after you cut the avocado. Juice right over top to keep the avocado from browning.)

Dressing (Mayo replacement):
1 ½ c – Fat Free Greek Yogurt – 150cal (0 fat)
2 Tbsp – fresh chopped cilantro – 0cal (0 fat)
3 Tbsp – Adobo Sauce – 10 cal (1 fat)

Pour dressing over ingredients and fold to coat.

Makes 8 servings, 109cal (31 fat)

Compare that to 1 ½ c Light Mayo (784cal / 720 fat) + 3 hardboiled eggs instead of avocado (231cal/144 fat), which would have been 182cal (109 fat) per serving. Additionally, the fat from the avocado is heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, unlike the egg and mayo.

It packs a nice bit of heat and smokiness. Good compliment to BBQ.
