Corned Beef and Onions
This corned beef and onions recipe was a favorite in my house growing up. I have very fond memories of my dad cooking this in our kitchen when I was a child. It was one of his go to meals whenever he was looking after us when my mom was out at a function. It was also one of the last meals I cooked for him before he passed away. So it has even more sentimental meaning to me. I still love to prepare this for my family now, and always have a can of corned beef and a couple of onions in my pantry as staple items ready to go.
