Onion lovers are sure to be asking for second helpings of this appetizing tart—it uses two kinds of onions! Parmesan and feta cheese, nutmeg and hot pepper sauce enhance the flavor nicely. With its quichelike filling, the dish is ideal for a brunch or buffet. -Christine Andreas, Huntingdon, Pennsylvania

Ingredients

1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)
2 medium sweet onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
3/4 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
6 green onions, thinly sliced

Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450° for 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack.
In a small skillet, saute onions in oil until tender; cool. In a food processor, combine the eggs, feta cheese, salt, pepper, nutmeg and hot pepper sauce; cover and process until smooth. Gradually add cream and milk; process until blended.
Brush the inside of crust with mustard. Sprinkle the green onions, chives and sauteed onions over crust. Carefully pour egg mixture over onions. Top with Parmesan cheese.
