1/2 Cup Hot Water

1/2 Tsp Marjoram

1. Peel, slice off the top of the onions and hollow out, leaving about a

1/2 " thick shell.

2. Place shells in a baking dish, cover with plastic wrap and microwave on

HIGH for 5 minutes. Or, place shells in a steamer basket and steam for 6

minutes after the water boils. Measure 1/2 cup of the onion that has been

scooped out and chop it finely. Heat a small skillet and cook the chopped

onion on top of stove or in microwave until soft in a small amount of veg

oil or water.

3. Stir together the TVP, hot water and spices. Combine TVP mixture with

the chopped cooked onions and then stir in the bread crumbs.

the remaining onion scraps, coarsely cut, around the stuffed onions.

5. Pour into the pan the veg stock and grape juice or wine.

6. Cover tightly and microwave on HIGH for 6 minutes. Remove dish and let

stand 5 minutes. Onions are done if tender when pierced with a knife. The

dish can be baked uncovered in a conventional oven at 375 for 30-35

minutes.

NOTES : This dish is excellent! I've made it in the oven, not the

microwave. I have used apple juice on occasion instead of wine or

grape juice and it turned out fine.
