My dad was a Naval Flag Officer and, when he was home, my parents were obligated to give cocktail parties. A variation of this recipe was one of my mom's mainstay canapés. In addition to the onion and mayonnaise, her version used extra sharp cheddar cheese, a few dashes of Tabasco (or other) hot sauce, and lots of coarsely ground black pepper on small crustless squares (cut each bread slice into 4). She toasted one side of the bread, added the cheese mixture to the other side, then broiled the tops until they were bubbly and deep, golden brown. They were crunchy, unctuous, and _delicious_ and a perfect compliment to mixed drinks. Thank you for posting this recipe, Tom and Melissa.
@@chogan201 I think my mom's recipe had a higher ratio of grated cheese to onion. So, hers were more a hot and bubbly cheese/onion bite than an onion open-faced sandwich with some cheese, if you know what I mean. 😊
I have been making these for 30 years. If you toast your bread lightly before spreading on filling, they are more sturdy. Then put on spread & run under broiler. My family loves these. They make a great appetizer on cocktail bread loaf, too.
We are onion lovers also. As a young person growing up we were very poor. One of our favorite ways to eat onions was to put a slices of onion on homemade leftover biscuits Thank you for this recipe. I will definitely try it.
How nostalgic! I used to make this recipe on little rye bread slices back in the 70s. They were always a hit and a frequently requested potluck contribution. Thanks for the memories!
I like to use cocktail rye bread or pumpernickel cocktail bread. One of our favorite recipes. I only use mayonnaise and diced onion , spread it on the bread then top it with a small square of cheddar. Then under the broiler until cheese is melted. Yum
Onions are so healthy for us. I love onions. They're good for so many things. Inflammation for 1. I haven't been able to eat that many and I can tell the difference. Will definitely try these. Could top with diced green onions or cilantro too. Also celery seed. Yum.
Love the onion on a cold snowy day, or any day! As a fellow Kentuckian who loves onion this is just another way to enjoy them! Our go sandwich was mayo & mater!
Before my mother died in 1959, we had onion sandwiches almost every night as a bedtime snack. Two slices of bread with butter on both and a thick slice of onion between them. I now use buns instead of bread.
We appreciate you sharing that family tradition with us. That sounds like a wonderful snack. We appreciate that you are watching our channel. Have a nice evening.
I enjoy something a little heartier than sandwich bread, but I reckon this would be just as yummy on a slice of artisan bread or even an English muffin! Thanks Mr. Tom! ❤️
When I was growing up, I never ate lunch at school. When I got home, I would use a cold piece of cornbread or biscuit and make an onion sandwich with mayo on it!! I would definitely eat this at my current age of seventy!!
lol we have fried egg sandwiches with bread and butter pickles on it all the time I thought we were the only ones to put a pickle on an egg sandwich. Love this recipe. I'm really enjoying your site. Thank you from Nova Scotia Canada
Bologna and onions and mayo sandwich. Yes! I ate potato chips with it, too. I love to read the comments, and am seeing so many people who ate like we did when we were kids. So good! Blessings to you!
This looks very good. Don't be wasting those crusts. Use them for bread pudding along with any other bread you want to use up. Tom I love onion and cheese sandwiches. One of my favs.
I like just a slice of onion on bread and salt and pepper. So good. Hubby likes taking an onion and scoop a little of the top of the onion out and put these in a dish and put butter on top and do in the microwave till done. So good. Have you noticed that the bread slices are smaller than they used to be.
Great treat thank you as I hope this year is as much as blessing to you both as it is for me to watch your channel. Your in my heart and prayers Jeff from Maine
My all time favorite sandwich is mayo or miracle whip, American cheese and a thick slice of a beefsteak tomato. This one looks like it has great potential to compete. Thanks for sharing.
These look amazing..going to try thesefor my son..he loves onions..he would love olives on these..eww to olives lol..have a great visit with ur children..thanku for sharing this..❤❤
These look so yummy!!! I love your recipes; would love to see a video with your girls in it. If they are anything like you and Melissa, I know we would love them!!
I never had a onion mayo sandwich but it sounds delicious 😋 I’ll have to try it 😊I made alot of your recipes and my family loves them all 💕have a blessed night Tom And Melissa 🙏
Those were so easy to make and look sooooo good. Thanks for sharing with us Tom and Melissa, stay safe and keep up the fun you have around there too. Fred
Never had this before, but I love anything onion, so can't imagine that I wouldn't love this. I guess I get that from my folks. They were both big onion eaters. In fact, my dad had a habit of going into my grandmother's garden and picking an onion or two, giving it a quick rinse off, and then eating them right there.
Another yummy recipe. These would be good on bagels or even English muffins. Could also use those extra hamburger buns that are just starting to get stale. I would mash down the top part first. Another Super Bowl snack from you that I added to my list.
when I was a young kid my mom would make a sandwich on white bread with radishes, butter and a touch of salt. I liked them but I want to try these because I do love onions. Love your videos, and recipes. I have tried a lot of them. Happy new year.😀
Ok…I love your channel and you two are just so kind…but even though I love bread, mayo and onions, I’m not sure if this 69 year old can do this one 😮 but certainly wanted to show my support! Keep up the fantastic work, I truly enjoy watching.
I'm more of an almost burnt cooked onion gal. 😊 I will try it but I will probably cook my onions in butter first and than add to mayo with the parmesan cheese and toast them right away. Thanks for the idea. By the way I've watched all of your videos in the one month that I've started following your channel. I found yall by looking for a cookie recipe. I'm so happy I found your channel. Much love from Murray Kentucky and former resident of Morehead Kentucky.
We eat onion sandwiches, especially summer, wiith bread and butter. Also radish sandwiches . I'll try this anything with onions, my grandmother put onions in or on everything but dessert. It sounds delicious
We always have left over hamburger and hotdog buns! I usually make garlic toast or cinnamon toast with them but this will be another option! Mama always said waste not, want not😊
Can’t wait to try these. Our local famous onions are the Walla Walla onions in eastern Washington state. It is the same as a vandalism, or so close they taste and look the same. Someone told me they were identical twins so from the same original source.
Hating mayonnaise the way my family does (& myself) I know we won't make these but I still wanted to leave a comment for the RUclips algorithm 😉. Whether I like what you're making or not I always enjoy watching you make it 😊
I'm not a mayo fan also. I like the idea of cream cheese. I do make a mayo inspired spread with tofu, so I may try that. I'm also thing maybe blended cottage cheese
I’ve also used minced onion from a jar, good to let it sit awhile. I usually just cut square bread with the crest off into fourths put into oven for a few minutes to crisp and use them as small horadores. Sorry can’t spell the last word.
I think I would use thinly sliced french bread(comes sliced at walmart $.99), finely chop or grate the onion and add a teaspoon of better than bouillon (beef flavor), use a little butter instead of mayo if you don't like mayo, forget the paprika , and top with candied bacon. Broil. Tom always says make it your own.
Hello Tom and Melissa those look really delicious!I may have to try these! I hope you don’t mind me asking but could you please keep my sister in your prayers she is really sick she was in the hospital last weekend and I have had to take her back this weekend i would really appreciate it thank you so much God bless you both🙏🏻

I like your recipe. Less waste when they are square.
I'm not sure I handle that much onion....But looks interesting...maybe the onion taste isn't so strong...
@@elizabethbaldwin8488 Yes. And you can eat them in 1 or 2 bites, which is better for a party where you're standing and walking around. 😉
@@chogan201 I think my mom's recipe had a higher ratio of grated cheese to onion. So, hers were more a hot and bubbly cheese/onion bite than an onion open-faced sandwich with some cheese, if you know what I mean. 😊
@@chogan201Chop onion then rinse under water. This removes the strong acidic flavor, making them milder.
I love onions any way you fix them. Thanks for sharing .
I have been making these for 30 years. If you toast your bread lightly before spreading on filling, they are more sturdy. Then put on spread & run under broiler. My family loves these. They make a great appetizer on cocktail bread loaf, too.
Those are great suggestions. We are finding ourselves making them more and more often since they are so easy to put together.
We are onion lovers also. As a young person growing up we were very poor. One of our favorite ways to eat onions was to put a slices of onion on homemade leftover biscuits Thank you for this recipe. I will definitely try it.
We were poor, too, and did that too, and added mayo. Mama made biscuits every morning, so we always had a few left over. Very good.
You're not poor if you were loved.
How nostalgic! I used to make this recipe on little rye bread slices back in the 70s. They were always a hit and a frequently requested potluck contribution. Thanks for the memories!

I love onions. When I was a kid, I used to eat mustard and onion sandwiches on buns.
Me and sister did too sometimes we would add a little dill relish too

My favorite sandwich is a tomato and onion sandwich. Mmm mmm goooooood
That sounds good!
I know my hubby will love these because he is a lover of anything onion.
That is an unusual snack, might have to try it
If no has ever put onions on a bologna sandwich, please try it. Potato chips or Fritos on bologna or ham sandwiches too. Yum.
I love potato chips on my bologna sandwich. Onion and tomato sometimes too.
Bologna and onions and mayo sandwich. Yes! I ate potato chips with it, too. I love to read the comments, and am seeing so many people who ate like we did when we were kids. So good! Blessings to you!

This looks terrific guys. Many thumbs up. Stay warm and safe.
Perfect for Super Bowl!!!
This looks good- thanks for sharing! I'm going to try this soon!
I would like to make this using English muffin halves. Looks good!
I love the variety of recipes on your channel. Never seen or heard of these before. That sounds really good!

Day old pastry is so good made up as bread pudding!
My friends mom loved tomato and onion sandwiches or just an onion sandwich. Refreshing in the summer time.
When I was very young I loved onion sandwiches LOL I even know how I came up with it many, many years ago. I don’t remember putting cheese on them.
Cheese and onion sandwiches are awesome.
I like just a slice of onion on bread and salt and pepper. So good. Hubby likes taking an onion and scoop a little of the top of the onion out and put these in a dish and put butter on top and do in the microwave till done. So good.

Love an onion sandwich❤

We made bread, butter and onion sandwiches. Yum!
Yours with cheese and mayonnaise sounds delicious!
My all time favorite sandwich is mayo or miracle whip, American cheese and a thick slice of a beefsteak tomato. This one looks like it has great potential to compete. Thanks for sharing.
They look so yummy. I'll have to make a smaller portion for me to try in case no one else wants one. Thanks for sharing!
I HAVE NEVER TRIED CHEESE ON IT, I LOVE A ONION BISCUIT.
Yes! This is a must try.
Thank you for the recipe!🎉

He truly did love onions it sounds like! Thank you so much for watching our channel and joining us at the table.
We're an onion family, love them. But I'm with you Melissa, I can't wrap myself around the thought of an onion, American cheese sandwich.😂
Another yummy recipe. These would be good on bagels or even English muffins. Could also use those extra hamburger buns that are just starting to get stale. I would mash down the top part first. Another Super Bowl snack from you that I added to my list.

Man I love onions! Definitely on my list
I love onions...I have already just made onion and mayo sandwiches on white bread...
That sounds like a delicious and simple snack! We appreciate you watching our channel. Hope you are having a great evening.
This sounds and looks so good. I can remember growing up my dad loved an onion sandwich.
Love thick slice of a good onion for sandwich and red onion in salads. Even a grilled onion on grill
I love onions,and will definitely try these.Thank you from the UK.
You are welcome 😊 We are so delighted to have you at the table with us.

Gave a thumbs up before you started talking…..just knew this recipe was going to be good!
This Onion Rounds recipe looks so delicious 😋 Mr. Tom.
A simple dish and I always have those ingredients! Can’t wait to try them! I use my toaster oven, too…more than my regular oven.
Onion/mustard sandwiches. Yummm!
I'm more of an almost burnt cooked onion gal. 😊 I will try it but I will probably cook my onions in butter first and than add to mayo with the parmesan cheese and toast them right away.

Thanks for the recipe, i have suggestion on scrape breads bits, cut up bits and toast as croutons
I've never understood why people remove the crust. It's my favorite part of the bread. Love your show.
I don't know if I'd like this but I may try one. We'll see. Love watching ya'll. ❤❤
We eat onion sandwiches, especially summer, wiith bread and butter. Also radish sandwiches . I'll try this anything with onions, my grandmother put onions in or on everything but dessert. It sounds delicious
Yes, and pepper sandwiches and pickle sandwhiches
We always have left over hamburger and hotdog buns! I usually make garlic toast or cinnamon toast with them but this will be another option! Mama always said waste not, want not😊
Can’t wait to try these. Our local famous onions are the Walla Walla onions in eastern Washington state. It is the same as a vandalism, or so close they taste and look the same. Someone told me they were identical twins so from the same original source.
That was funny Melissa saying your just eating away delicious food something to enjoy 😊😊
I would leave the crust on it is my favorite part of the bread
Hating mayonnaise the way my family does (& myself) I know we won't make these but I still wanted to leave a comment for the RUclips algorithm 😉.
Whether I like what you're making or not I always enjoy watching you make it 😊
I think this would be really good made with whipped cream cheese in place of mayonnaise. Miniature bagels would also be great in place of bread.
I'm not a mayo fan also. I like the idea of cream cheese. I do make a mayo inspired spread with tofu, so I may try that. I'm also thing maybe blended cottage cheese
I've read where sour cream is a great substitute for mayo.
Have y’all ever eaten Dukes mayonnaise. It is a life changer.
I'm not a fan of mayo either.
Onion and mayosammich or a garden tomato and onion sammich one of my favorites
I’ve also used minced onion from a jar, good to let it sit awhile. I usually just cut square bread with the crest off into fourths put into oven for a few minutes to crisp and use them as small horadores. Sorry can’t spell the last word.
Thanks for sharing 🤗
An onion and cheese sandwich is the best comfort for a sore throat.
We love onions
Looks so delicious 🤗💕💕💕
Never had them, I'm going to try it.
Absolutely delicious
Melissa is right. I, too, like Vidalia onion, I can't even imagine a sandwich with just a slice with cheese and mayo.
My daughters friend from India made me curry eggs (delicious) and an onion salad. I couldn’t stop crying lol and that opened up my nostrils. Lol
I've got to try that onion cheese sandwich, sounds scrumptious, and this recipe of course
This looks wonderful!! Tom, I LOVE onion sandwiches with mayo...never tried with cheese though!
I loved a mayo and onion sandwich before bed with a glass of milk,It helps you sleep.I can no longer eat them because of stomach problems.
My Grandfather ate onion and mayonnaise sandwiches. A WV man!
I'd probably try doing these in the air fryer.
These look FANTASTIC!! 💕🙏🙏
They really are great. We hope you get to try them soon.
@ I LOVE, LOVE onions!
I love sweet onions on a sandwich. These look delicious! Really enjoy watching your videos! 😊
Thank you so much, Becky. Since you are an onion lover, we think you are going to really enjoy these appetizers.
I love bacon, egg & cheese sandwiches. Never tried em with bread & butter pickles.
Look so good
Tom I make something similar and the only difference is I use grated cheddar and a tablespoon of mango chutney Delicious
Looks delicious…
Looks like a perfect use for an English muffin.
Yes! Or mini Naan rounds.
I think I would use thinly sliced french bread(comes sliced at walmart $.99), finely chop or grate the onion and add a teaspoon of better than bouillon (beef flavor), use a little butter instead of mayo if you don't like mayo, forget the paprika , and top with candied bacon. Broil. Tom always says make it your own.
Absolutely! We love your creativity and originality!
I Wii be bloated for days, but I have got to try this!
Hello Tom and Melissa those look really delicious!I may have to try these! I hope you don’t mind me asking but could you please keep my sister in your prayers she is really sick she was in the hospital last weekend and I have had to take her back this weekend i would really appreciate it thank you so much God bless you both🙏🏻
Wow, I always made this as a dip. Yum!!! I have used swiss cheese. Equal amounts of mayo, onion and swiss! 😊
Looks tasty
I enjoyed the video 🤗
