It’s the weekend guys, and I don’t know about you but I feel good. Ecstatic, even, although it’s not like I’ve got anything special planned out. But how great is the very thought of two full days crammed with nothing other than endless possibilities of having fun? And here’s one way to have that fun and eat well too – my deliciously vegan French Onion Tart with a divine gluten-free crust. I use so many onions every day in my cooking, usually as a flavor base for other ingredients, that I forget just how much of a star this good old veggie is in its own right. Caramelized onions are deep, rich, sweet, smoky and incredibly flavorful. But wait! Did you know that onions are also super-good for you? They contain cancer-fighting compounds and have anti-inflammatory properties. Amazing. I had been wanting to post this recipe for a French Onion Tart forever because it’s so good and because I love you all so much, but I needed to find the time to make it during the day so Desi could get great pictures too. Despite sounding so ooh la la, this is quite a simple recipe and you don’t need to go shopping for any fancy ingredients (not unless you consider nutritional yeast a fancy ingredient, but it is optional). Which makes it the perfect treat for a lazy weekend, when you want to spend less time in the kitchen and more time hanging out on the couch with your sweetie (or your dog or cat or all of the above), and a bottle of wine.

So on with the tart recipe then. Serve this vegan French onion tart with a side of ratatouille and reel the compliments in!
