Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Tart
1 puff pastry sheet (thawed)
2 red onions, thinly sliced
2 T. The Tasteful Olive mild intensity extra virgin olive oil
1/4 c. The Tasteful Olive Italian Herbes of Naples dark balsamic vinegar, plus extra for topping, if desired
salt and pepper, to taste
5 oz. goat cheese
1 T. honey
1 T. The Tasteful Olive Rosemary pressato extra virgin olive oil
1 T. yogurt
Cook the onions in a skillet over medium heat with the olive oil, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the onions are soft and starting to brown, about 15-20 minutes, then add the balsamic vinegar and cook until the balsamic is completely absorbed, about 3 more minutes. Set aside.
To make the goat cheese mixture, blend goat cheese, honey, rosemary oil, and yogurt together using a food processor until the mixture is a smooth and spreadable texture.
Preheat the oven to 350. Place the thawed puff pastry sheet on a sheet pan, prick it with a fork, and spread the goat cheese mixture all over it, leaving a little bit of an edge. Then, top it with the onions. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden.
Let cool for 10-15 minutes, cut into squares, and serve up with a drizzle of balsamic, if desired
