Ingredients

> 3 tbsp olive oil
> 2 larger pieces roughly chopped yellow onions, thinly sliced
> 1 (16 oz) pkg Nature's Promise ® Italian-Style Meatballs, thawed
> 1/2 (10.5 oz) can beef consomme

Steps

1
In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, heat the oil on medium-high. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook 20–25 min., until onions are browned and caramelized, stirring occasionally and adding water to deglaze pan if needed.

When onions are almost caramelized, add the meatballs to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave meatballs on high 3–4 min., until warmed through.
3
Preheat broiler on high. Add the consommé and meatballs to skillet and bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the cheese on top. Broil 2–3 min., until cheese has melted and liquid is bubbling.
