I guess they would have cooked them they would have cooked their meat and fish so chucking the onions in would make sense. I eat cooked and raw onions.
The life of slaves in Egypt was not as hard as we think

there was an egg hatchery that was in continuous use for something like 4500 years that shutdown in something like the 1980s, (electricity finally replaced them)
so pretty sure they had chickens and eggs even if I got my numbers a bit wrong

...Beer was a very popular beverage, made from bread, the staple food in the Egyptian diet. If there was a constant supply of bread, one could guess that there was a constant supply of beer. Along with the bread flakes the beer was made with barley. The barley was left to dry, and then baked into loaves of bread. The baked barley loaves were then broken into pieces and mixed with dried grain in a large jug of water and left to ferment. Wine was a drink that was produced by the Egyptians; however, it was usually found only at the tables of the wealthy. Considering the vast majority of Egyptians were not wealthy, a vast majority of Egyptians drank beer.
