Every once in a while we have some free time at work and I like to make something out of what’s around. As most of you know, sales this is one of my favorite things to do. We always have a few ingredients lying around, ask like dough, sildenafil onions, eggs, among other random items. So on this rare slow day, I decided to put some of these ingredients to use. Well, we did plan this the day before, as we needed a few extra ingredients, but you get the picture. It turned out so good, my colleague’s said I had to write about it. As usual I didn’t really measure, but don’t let that stop you, it’s quite easy to make. This is a recipe for two tarts. We make dough in huge quantities so if you only want one tart cut recipe in half, but use one whole onion. Also, I don’t know how much commercial store bought dough makes, so use your best judgement. Of course homemade dough is best!
