A Nibble Bit

One of my favorite leisurely activities is sitting down with the Trader Joe's Fearless Flyer that I receive in the mail and circling all the new products I want to taste. The most recent Fearless Flyer highlighted an onion tart that I wanted to try.

"This Alsatian onion tart is similar in style to other tarts we have in our stores, rich and buttery, and with a unique crust and topping you might expect to find in a fabulous continental restaurant, and not the freezer case in a grocery store. Trader Jacques Tarte à l'Oignon begins with a true shortcrust dough made with 100% butter and free range eggs. That glorious crust is topped with crème fraiche, slow cooked grilled onions, a bit of milk, nutmeg, and pepper [...]"

 How could I resist such a vivid description? You're right--I couldn't.

The dough! It is ri-iiii-sing!

Getting ready to pop it in the Nuwave oven!

Yum. Doughy, rosemary, garlicky goodness.

Voila!

If you, like me, cook everything in your Nu-Wave oven, beware that the cooking times might vary. My bread came out like the above after just 20-25 minutes!


I didn't take a picture while I devoured these bad boys, unfortunately.

They are extremely delicious when warm and dipped in olive oil. The rosemary flavor really stands out. As the name implies (Monkey Bread, ooh ah ah), you can use your hands to pick the bread apart as you eat it. :)

This bread would go well as an appetizer, with pasta, or even on its own!

And sure enough, the cheese gave me my lactose-intolerant stomachache. I daresay that this was well worth it, though.

You can find a box at your local Trader Joe's for $4.99 in the freezer aisle.
