This recipe does have quite a few ingredients, but it really goes together quickly and easily. Don't let the amount of onions fool you....when they cook down you'll have ½ of what you started with much like cooking spinach. Also if you have fresh mushrooms you can use them as well, for this dish I like the small button...
