1 large sweet onion (white, yellow, or red), cut into 1-inch wedges, or 4 cups cipollini onions (wild onions), halved
1/4 cup cooking oil
3 tbsp packed brown sugar
2 lb fresh or frozen whole green beans, trimmed
6 oz baby Portobello (cremini) or button mushrooms, halved
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
6 oz goat cheese (chevre), softened or cream cheese, softened
2 to 3 tbsp milk

In a large skillet cook onions, covered, in hot oil over medium-low heat for 13 to 15 minutes or until onions are tender. Uncover; add brown sugar. Cook and stir over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes or until onions are golden and caramelized. Set aside.
