Very yummy side dish. A dear lady used to bring this to work for pot-lucks and everyone loved it. You could easily cut this recipe in half. (Cooking time is based on using a slow cooker!)

1/4 cup butter
1 cup finely chopped onion
4 cups cooked white rice

1 large bay leaf (finely crushed)
1/2 teaspoon salt
