Three onions seems like a lot. I used 1-1/2 onions, all that I happened to have. I also only used one pound of ground beef, since that's the size I had. I did use slightly more salt and chili powder. Tammy thought it still needed more. The result was flavorful and had a slight sweetness for such a simple recipe. Also, next time, I'll probably drain at least some of the fat.
