the red onions

caramelized onion pizza with mozzarella and pesto

I hate to be repetitive about the locations of my purchases, but when you find four red onions for $1 at Johnny D’s you don’t think twice. I’m not much of an onion fan (I can’t handle the crunch), but I sure like the sweet, rich flavor of a caramelized red onion. We used this batch as the solo topping for a classic pesto/mozzarella pizza. Pair the pizza with a side of farm-fresh local tomatoes and you’ve got yourself an ideal summer meal.

    These posts always make me regret not taking advantage of Jinny D’s! It was right down the road from us. I guess I must find an equivalent over here. And holy cow that pizza looks amazing. Can’t wait for gourmet night at your house this month!

    You once mentioned that you and your husband like to make pizza. For some reason, the mental image I got paled in comparison to this gorgeous creation! Yummy!
