1 rib (1/2 cup) celery, finely chopped
3 (3/4-ounce) slices Land O Lakes® Deli American Cheese, coarsely chopped

Heat oven to 350°F. Line 13×9-inch pan with aluminum foil; set aside.

Melt butter in 10-inch skillet until sizzling; add sliced onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is light golden brown (5 to 7 minutes).
