Caramelized Onion Pesto Pie

Ingredients:

• 3 lbs sweet onions thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 pie shell I've also used a Boboli Crust puff pastry and phyllo dough with good results
• 1/2 cup prepared pesto sauce
• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard

Steps:

• Cook the sliced onion in the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat stirring occasionally until the onions are soft
• Add the sugar and salt and continue cooking and stirring until onions are golden and caramelized about 35 minutes
• Spread mustard on the crust of your choice
• Spread pesto over the mustard
• Spoon the onions into the crust and smooth to make an even layer
• Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until crust is light brown and cooked
• Time and temperature might vary depending on what type of crust you choose
