Ingredient Dairy Cheese Parmesan Cheese Spiralized Onions with Crispy Parmesan Breadcrumbs 5.0 (1) 1 Review You may not have considered onions as candidates for the spiralizer, but you should. They create beautiful ribbons that make this recipe reminiscent of fried shoestring onions. And because this onion ring-inspired recipe is baked rather than fried, they're really easy to make. Serve them as a side with burgers or as a crunchy healthy snack for game night.
