Recipe of the week - Onion Pie

We first had this dish at my brother and sister in law's house over a Thanksgiving holiday several years ago.  We immediately loved it and i asked Heidi for the recipe, which she gladly gave to me.  And now, i'm sharing it with you!  Enjoy!

30 saltines
1 stick of butter, melted
3 cups thinly sliced vidalia onions
1/4 cup sharp grated cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups of milk
3 eggs

- Crush saltine crackers and place in a shallow casserole dish (9x13).  Pour melted butter over crackers.
- Saute 3 cups of thinly sliced vidalia onions in butter until golden brown

This can be made ahead of time
