I add garlic powder, onion powder, chopped garlic, frozen peas and carrots and saute with the onions and garlic. You could add pork or shrimp or bacon to this recipe too. I use green onions and yellow onions, and even celery. If in a hurry and don't want to chop onions use the frozen chopped onions or the frozen chopped onions with celery and pepper mix.
