Stuffed Sweet Onions

• 3 quarts water
• 4 medium sweet onions, peeled
• 1 tablespoon chopped green onion
• 1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
• 6 teaspoons butter, divided
• 1/2 cup chopped fully cooked lean ham
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs, divided

1. In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. Add onions; cover and boil for 9-11 minutes or until tender. Drain; cool for 5 minutes. Cut a thin slice off the top of each onion; carefully hollow out, leaving a 1/2-in. shell. Chop removed onion.
2. In a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook the chopped onion, green onion and parsley in 4 teaspoons butter for 3 minutes. Add the ham, salt, celery seed, pepper and garlic powder; cook until onions are tender and ham is lightly browned. Stir in 1/4 cup bread crumbs; heat through. Stuff into onion shells.
3. Melt remaining butter; toss with remaining bread crumbs. Sprinkle over stuffing. Broil 6 in. from the heat for 3-4 minutes or until crumbs are lightly browned and onions are heated through.
