This is a wonderful Sunday night dinner dish served with a green salad. This is a tart that is rich in sweet onion flavor balanced with the earthiness of the mushrooms and the cream cheese adds just a touch of tartness. Our pie crust is no fail (we’ve made it millions of times) and we frequently double it. Freeze it and use it for both savory and sweet dishes whenever you need to.

Notes:

• We used two kinds of onions which we found to be very delicious.

• This is vegetarian friendly and a real crowd pleasure!

• Make this in a square tart pan and cut into bit size servings for your super bowl party!
