EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

The caramelized onion mixture is also great on sandwiches and grilled meat.

The onion mixture can be made two or three days before serving and stored in the fridge. Then just toast the bread, assemble and serve.

Made these for our Christmas party and they were excellent! They are easy and are served at room temperature. Made the onions three days in advance. Loved the crispy bread. Will make this many more times.
