Ingredients

1 large onion, sliced
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

This pizza was fantastic. I dont like onions but wanted to try it because my husband loves onions. I used a red onion and the flavor was so sweet and zesty. We also made a homemade pizza crust. Would eat this once a week if I could!!
