Onion and Cheddar Pie
I’m torn between trying to decide if my favorite part of the onion and cheddar pie is the caramelized onions or the rich buttery crust, lucking I don’t have to choose because I get both in every bite! Thanks to Country Magic for growing and supplying Atlantic Canada with the BEST onions!
