Ingredients:
3 Tbs. butter 5 medium onions, thinly sliced 2 whole eggs 2 egg yolks 3/4 cup milk 1/2 cup whipping cream or heavy cream 1 tsp. salt black pepper to taste 1/2 cup red bell pepper, diced 2 Tbs. fresh Italian parsley, chopped 1 partially baked 9-inch pie crust 1 cup grated Swiss cheese
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. While butter is melting, slice onions and add them to pan and sautX until limp, but not brown. Beat together eggs, milk, whipping cream, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Drain onions, add bell pepper and parsley. Arrange in pie shell. Cover with Swiss cheese. Pour beaten egg mixture over cheese. Place in preheated 350-degree oven and bake until pie puffs in the middle and is golden brown, about 40 minutes.
Note: Recipe calls for yellow onions, but a combination of onions, especially some sweet ones like Maui, Walla Walla or Vidalias, would be great. Leeks and a few green onions would be a nice addition as well.
