Vidalia Onion and Mushroom Pie

"This pie is an onion-lovers dream! You can use a store-bought frozen 9-inch deep-dish pie shell for this but you will have to reduce the Vidalia onions to one, and the sliced mushrooms to 2 cups. Prep time does not include making the pie pastry."

  • Delicious!

  1. This pie or quiche is excellent and I could tell that everyone at the table hated it ;) LOL, as there were very little leftovers. Next time I may add some white cheddar cheese too. Thanks for posting. Made for the 2009 Bargain Basement.
