Caramelized Onion & Blue Cheese Bruschetta
Featured recipe: My Holiday Entertaining Guide
Yield – 16 servings
Preparation Time – 35 minutes to caramelize the onions
Cooking Time – 3 minutes under the broiler
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 white onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 16 slices baguette bread, thinly sliced
- ½ cup blue cheese crumbles
Directions
- “Balsam-melize the onions” – In a large skillet, heat the olive oil, then stir in the chopped onions, sugar and balsamic vinegar. Let cook over low heat for 30 minutes, stirring often. (The onions can be cooked up to 2 days ahead of time and stored in the freezer until ready to assemble and broil.)
- Meanwhile, slice the baguette bread, place on a baking sheet and run under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes to toast the pieces some. Then add the “balsam-melized” onions and a few crumbles of blue cheese to each bread slice. Run under the broiler again for 1 to 2 minutes, until cheese softens.
- Serve Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Bruschetta.
