People either love or hate mushrooms. Rarely have I met someone who thought mushrooms were okay. I love mushrooms because they have a natural umami flavor built in and are an easy addition to any meal or side. This side dish I pulled out of my imagination and it turned out really good. If Camembert is too strong a cheese for you, I would recommend substituting it with Brie. I hope you give this side a try.

- 1/2 Large Sweet Onion, sliced into long thin slices (6.6oz / 187g)

- Add chunks of camembert and cover the sauté pan with a lid for a few seconds till the cheese melts
