I made these tonight for my family, and my husband LOVED it. He went back for seconds and even had thirds on the onions – rarely have I seen him enjoy a vegetable that much. Thank you so much. My children weren’t huge fans, I think the spice rub was a bit much for them. Next time (and there will certainly be a next time) I will probably not rub theirs with the spices and just let it drip down from the onions and soak up from the juices. Thank you for the great GAPS-friendly dinner recipe!

some of the ingredients are listed twice — but in different amounts — should i use both measurements?
