When I saw the theme for this month's Waiter, there's something in my ........ is picnic food, I just had to enter. I LOVE picnics. It does not always have to be planned weeks in advance( I like those too), but a simple "Let's have coffee and sarmies at the beach" is AS good and it always creates wonderful memories for our children. This event is hosted by Cooksister, SpittoonExtra and thepassionatecook so if you want to join the picnic, just click on the image below.
My entry for this event is a Goat's Cheese and Caramelized Red onion Tart. It is super easy to make and simply scrumptious.!!!
Ingredients ( for about 6 tarts)
1 roll puff pastry
1 large red onion - sliced thinly
pinch of sugar
1 Tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper.
100 gr Goat's cheese - I used French onion and chives
Homemade Organic Tomato Chutney
a sprig or thyme
Heat oil in a pan and add onion. Brown slightly and add sugar, seasoning and thyme. Keep browning the onion until it is soft and fully caramelized.
Roll out the pastry and cut 6 rounds. Roll the edges slightly to form a crust. Spread the chutney lavishly on the pastry. Top with some onion and then crumble the coat's cheese on top. Sprinkle with some thyme and bake for 15-20 minutes. When cooled down, layer the tarts with pieces of greaseproof paper in between. Tie together with some string and your off to a perfect picnic spot somewhere. Serve with a simple salad for a delicious meal.

That looks and sounds delish. Perfect for your picnic.
Lovely picnic idea, and one of my all-time favorite flavor combinations. Thanks for sharing!
Oh, how I love onion and goat cheese tarts. Yours look fantastic!
Picnics are one of my favorite things in the world.
I can help carry that yummy picnic basket for you Nina...what a scrumptious tart! Cheers Deeba
One of my best memories is having curry sarmies and tea, sitting on the rocks watching the whales in Hermanus. Like you say, simple is best when it comes to outdoor eating.
Oh wow, I'd love to go on a picnic with you! Wow! :) Those look really delicious!
This looks perfect for a romantic picnic-for-two I'm planning for later this week! It looks amazing!
your tart looks and sounds amazing... if red onions didn't exist, they'd have to be invented! and the combo with goat's cheese is the best!
thanks for participating!

Goat cheese and caramelized onions is a great combo.

Looks so delicious. I love the darling kitchen towels and the way you photographed it all.
That looks like heaven. Caramelized onions on anything is tasty to me. Great job Nina.
there is nothing like a good onion tart! i've made them for outdoor meals as well & they are the perfect thing
Oh yum - these are two of my all-time favourite flavours! The tartlets look fantastic - can I please come to your picnic??
This looks wonderful. I'm not sure any tarts would make it to the picnic though. They might have to be eaten immediately.
