Heavenly creamed pearl onion casserole image

I love creamed onions but several years ago I decided to amp it up a bit by adding cheese and a breadcrumb topping & turning it into a casserole. I can guarantee you take 1 bite and you'll be humming, " heaven, I'm in heaven." lol

This casserole is a bit too rich for my taste. I think it would be better with a lighter cream sauce.
