Last week I had posted about preparing yucca root. This is what I made with the yucca root. While growing up, only plain steamed yucca root was made at home and we used to have yucca root chips from the store. Since we love onions I decided to toss it with some onions like we do for sundal recipes. The result was a tasty snack and we loved it. Off to the easy recipe.
