Bistro-Style Artichoke and Onion Galette

Submitted by Chef PotPie

"This recipe is very easy and big on taste. It's pretty, too! I served it as part of a light cocktail menu and everyone loved it, but it would be nice as part of a light supper also. If you want meat in it, (as my husband did), a few slices of Dry Italian Salami go as if it were originally in the recipe. I took this from my local newspaper, which surprises me sometimes with something like this!"

This galette is absolutely fabulous -- it has everything we love on it; especially the artichoke hearts and gruyere. Didn't change a thing and wouldn't. This recipe will be made again and again. It's going into my Best Of 2021 file for sure.

Oh my! Ten stars! The onions are so, so good! I used a fresh pizza crust from Publix, instead of the pie crust. Such an awesome galette. And pretty, too!

This was very good thanks. the only thing i changed was that I use flat bread instead of pastry
