Saucy Onion Mushroom Squares

Saucy Onion Mushroom Squares

I don’t typically use products that are “processed” like puff pastry, but it just happens to be vegan, and makes a wonderful base for this delicious appetizer.  Make sure you use a rich, syrupy balsamic vinegar for the best flavor.  Serve this at your next gathering, along with my Zesty Salsa!

Ingredients

  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 8 oz pkg sliced white or bella mushrooms, diced
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (see Note below)
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil on medium-low heat. Add onion and thyme, cover and cook about 10-15 minutes until the onions are golden, stirring occasionally. Add small splashes of water if onions start to brown too much or stick to the pan.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • Add mushrooms to skillet and cook about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the salt, pepper and vinegar. Cook for one minute longer. Remove from heat and cool about 10 minutes.
  • While the mixture is cooling, unfold the pastry sheet and roll out as thinly as possible. Spread the onion/mushroom mixture evenly over the pastry.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes until the pastry puffs and is golden brown. Sprinkle with parsley. Use a pizza cutter to slice the pastry into 20 squares. Serve warm. Enjoy!

Notes

Balsamic Vinegar- use the thickest, darkest, most syrupy balsamic you can find -- for richer flavor.
