I have been meaning to make this for months and finally got the ingredients. I have a few questions. How do you carmelize the onions? Can I use muffin liners instead of just spraying the pan? My pans are kind of gross looking, need new ones. Also, does this reheat well? Have you ever made it in a pie pan? Do the ingredient amounts change for that? Thanks in advance!
Good recipe Susan, thanks!
Ok so how did you "carmalize" the onions?
Sara,
I carmelize my onions on a very low flame in a big saute pan (covered).
Amy sorry I didn't get back to you; I hadn't made this one before (but am soooo glad you reviewed it!).
