Tasty Parmesan and Sage Stuffed Onion Recipe For Pressure Cooker

If you have a pressure cooker, such as the Cuisinart CPC 600 Electric Pressure Cooker or the Presto Pressure Cooker 8 Qt you will love this easy recipe for Parmesan and Sage Stuffed Onion.

With a pressure cooker you can make easy and tasty dishes in a very short while. So, if you want to entertain the easy way, make at least one of your dishes in your pressure cooker to save you time and money.

Another benefit of the pressure cooker is that the flavor of the food is retained and the nutrition is also retained. So pressure cooker meals are not only tasty, but they are also healthy.

So here is your recipe

Parmesan and Sage Stuffed Onion Recipe

What You Need:

  • 4 large sweet onions
  • 1 C of bread crumbs
  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 t dried sage
  • 1/2 t salt
  • 1/4 t pepper
  • 4 t Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 C of water
How to Make It:

  1. Scoop the center out of each of the onions leaving 2 layers of onion and being careful not to perforate the onion walls.
  2. Place the bread crumbs into a mixing bowl.
  3. Add the egg whites.
  4. Sprinkle in the sage, salt and pepper and mix until blended together well.
  5. Stuff the onions 2/3 full of the mixture.
  6. Sprinkle each onion with 1 t of the Parmesan cheese.
  7. Pour the water into the pressure cooker.
  8. Place the trivet into the cooker.
  9. Lay the stuffed onions on the trivet making sure the onions do not touch the sides of the cooker.
  10. Bring the cooker to high pressure quickly and cook 5 minutes.
  11. Quickly release the pressure under cold water.
Pressure cookers are a major time saver. They are at least three times faster than normal cooking and almost twice as fast as the microwave. If your food is not done after the recommended cooking time, recover the cooker and bring it back up to pressure. Continue cooking for 3 minutes and then quickly release the pressure again.
