Onion Pie and So Much More.....

Much of the time I have trouble boiling water and most things I try don't seem to turn out these days.  When I find a recipe that is something that my hubby and I love, I get pretty excited.  When I make it (even remember to buy all the ingredients) and it turns out just as good as we imagined, then I am in heaven!!  I used to be a fairly good cook - no Martha, but decent.  Now it is hard work and way too easy for me to get confused and that is good for nobody - not even my dogs - even they know when to back away.

I tried this recipe last night and just crossed my fingers and hoped it would be eatable - well if I do say so myself it was fabulous -- just a fluke I'm sure but wonderful just the same.  The recipe is below - I did use fat free half and half and about a cup of the cheese and I added some garlic.   It all came together and it cuts so beautifully - could have been that Paula Deen Pie Dish - I don't know.......but who cares - it was Great!!!
