Slice the onion in half-rings, put them in a microwave-safe bowl. Grate in the garlic and season them with the crumbled 1/4 bouillon cube and pepper. Mix it up.

Place the casserole in a preheated oven and bake at 400F° for 20 to 25 minutes (keep an eye on it) until the cheese has melted and turned golden brown.
