Swiss Cheese Onion Crostini
If you like the flavors of French Onion soup, you will love these quick bite appetizers made with Gruyère, the type of Swiss cheese traditionally melted on top of that soup.
2-3 TB 365 Everyday Value™ Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 yellow or white onions, very thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
1 tsp dried thyme
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large baguette, sliced on the diagonal into 12-16 slices, about ½" thick
2 TB 365 Everyday Value™ Organic Dijon Mustard
2 cups grated Gruyère cheese
Preheat oven to 425°F. In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; add onions. Let onions cook at least 3 minutes before stirring (they should start to brown before you move them around). Continue to cook, stirring only occasionally, about 20 minutes, until onions are well browned. Add thyme and season with salt and pepper. Spread bread slices with a little mustard. Divide onion mixture evenly over bread slices then top each with cheese. Place on foil-lined baking sheet; bake 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Makes 12–16 pieces.
