Default Uses for shallots

I never used to buy them. Then some years ago I ordered some products from
Omaha steaks and there was a recipe for Steak Dianne. It called for
shallots, so I bought some to make it. My husband ate the steaks, but
didn't rave about them so I never bought them or shallots again.

But recently I have gotten shallots many times in my PCA box. Once, I
chopped them and put them in a vegetable soup. It was nice. I have used
them raw in salads. Also nice. Then the other night I made some nachos for
myself because I didn't like the food I made for Angela and my husband. I
would normally put green onions on nachos or some chopped white onion if I
didn't have green. The only onion I had was a yellow one. It was huge and
I didn't feel like cutting it up. So I chopped up a shallot. It was very
good on the nachos. Very sweet.

I've gotten to where I prefer white onions for most things. I put them in
almost everything. Can I substitute the shallots to use them up?
