Caramelized Onion Pizza

SWEET ONIONS

Nothing better than this sweet Caramelized Onion Pizza. I don’t get this to often because every time I make pizza I have to top it with everything the rest of the family likes and I never get an onion pizza all by myself. So from now on I’m going to make one pizza just for me. Me, me, me.

If I had only one pizza to eat, this would be it. Though I hope I never have only one choice. Most onion pizzas use regular yellow onions. I like combining yellow, red and long green onions together with a few shallots and a touch of garlic. You know I’m lying,when did you ever know me to use a touch of garlic.

When making this pizza use nice fresh onions. They tend to be milder and sweeter. You can also add any other topping you can think of except it won’t be a Caramelized Onion Pizza now will it? I will admit I add a little fresh basil and parmesan cheese on top to give a little extra flavor. So now it’s a Caramelized Onion Pizza with Shallots, Basil and Parmesan Cheese.
