I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a way to use up some leftover caramelized onions. I had made a big batch of them for another dish, and I didn't want them to go to waste. I decided to try them in a tartlet, and they were so good that I knew I had to share the recipe with the world. I've been making these tartlets for years now, and they're always a hit. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or any other occasion where you need a quick and easy appetizer.
