Tomato Caramelized Onion Pie – Vegan and gluten-free delicious complete meal high in fiber.
I love carbs!! I am a real Frenchy! But as I try to avoir gluten, I find myself playing with with gluten-free grains. This tomato caramelized onion pie is to die for! And if you’re not a vegan, you’re welcome to use goat cheese (the best combination!)
In this recipe, make sure you don’t omit the caramelized onions. They are absolutely needed, as they contrast well with the acidity of the cheese and tomatoes.
Feel free to play with the recipe and use the crust for different combination!
