Lightly coat a 9" round springform pan with a little mayonnaise or unflavored vegetable oil.
To assemble: spread egg mixture evenly over bottom of pan and sprinkle drained onions on top.
Drop cream cheese mixture by spoonfuls on top of onion layer and spread gently with the back of a spoon or spatula.
