Onion Egg Pie

This is a recipe in pictures, with simple directions. Mostly because it is one of the few times I don't follow a recipe but use what's available.

Caramelize two onions:


Unroll aldi pie crusts into pans. I made four pies:


Put onions in crusts:


 Stir up a lot of eggs (I use 8 to 12 per pie) with a big squirt of blue cheese dressing.


 Pour into crusts and bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes - or until they look done:



  Variations: use cheese instead of onions (we made one with cheese), or spinach, or a combination of all three. Use Ranch dressing. Or whipping cream and nutmeg.


 Crush egg shells and feed them back to your chickens.





Enjoy!

Which variation is your favorite?

  2. I made one of these 2 days and it is sooooo good!
    I used an easy homemade whole-wheat crust (http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/18/health/whole-wheat-mediterranean-pie-crust-recipes-for-health.html)and I added something I know you wouldn't include: bacon. I crumbled 2 slices of bacon in the bottom of the pie crust, and used the grease to saute the onions.
    Thanks!
