I make it almost "normally" -- frozen green beans, cream of mushroom
soup -- but instead of the batter-dipped fried onions, I go to the Asian
market and get a jar of deep fried onions. They're just fried onions,
no batter, so they are much lower carb.

thanks for the hint about the deep fried onions. Good idea.

Look for them in the section for Thai foods, if the store is organized
geographically. The ones I got are in a shrinkwrapped 3.5 oz plastic
jar with a red lid. They say they're a product of Thailand, ingredients
95% red onion, 5% palm oil, less than 1 gram carb per 1 Tablespoon
serving, 10 servings to the jar. And they're yummy! There's fried
garlic, too. :-)

For anyone in my neck of the woods, they're in the far right-hand aisle
near the back of the Super 88 market at Packards' Corner (where Comm.
Ave. splits off from Brighton Ave.) in Boston. Top shelf, IIRC.
