Fried, fatty and full of calories—that’s probably what comes to mind when you think of onion rings. But the favorite snack doesn’t have to elicit guilt-ridden eater’s remorse—or, for that matter, an upset stomach. This healthy, tummy-friendly version, tossed in organic extra virgin olive oil and generously sprinkled with rosemary, is a far cry from the deep-fried, greasy onions you might find at sports bars or fast food joints. Make a batch for the week and eat them on their own, or use them to top salads and casseroles.
