Stuffed onion is a flavorful dish often associated with Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, where whole onions are hollowed out and filled with a savory mixture of ground meat, rice, herbs, and spices. Some variations include vegetarian fillings such as lentils, quinoa, or chopped vegetables. The stuffed onions are typically baked or simmered in a tangy tomato-based sauce. Rich in flavor, the dish offers a balance of protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like vitamin C and B6 from the onion itself. Its nutritional value depends on the filling; recipes incorporating lean meats and whole grains are healthier options, while versions with high-fat meats or heavy sauces may be less so. Low in refined carbohydrates and packed with natural antioxidants, stuffed onions can be a wholesome and satisfying meal with thoughtful preparation.
