Crispy Onion Straws

 

These crispy litte fellas made the perfect topping for my BBQ loaded sweet potatoes. Well…..what was left of them, after my husband ate half the batch 😉
 I see a great future in store for this recipe. Obviously, they make an awesome appetizer. I’m also thinking a green bean casserole is in order. Oh boy, this will be fun.
