Caramelized Veggie Tartlets
The tartlets are perfect bite size appetizers to bring to any part or potluck! They have been a great hit with all my friends!
The crispy phyllo dough texture pairs well with the melted cheese, browned asparagus, and caramelized onion.
Perfectly portioned bite size eats.
