THIN CRUST CARAMELIZED ONION & EGGPLANT PIZZA

INGREDIENTS

4 Tablespoons olive oil
2 small yellow onions, halved and thinly sliced
Pinch of sugar
3 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
4 large flour tortillas (or make your own pizza crusts and bake for 5 minutes prior to following these steps.)
1 cup shredded Asiago cheese
16 button mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 potato, thinly sliced
1/2 eggplant, thinly sliced
Salt and pepper to taste

Prehead oven to 450 degrees F.  Heat 2 tablespoon olive oil in large saute pan on medium heat.  Sprinkle onions, eggplant and potatoes with salt and pepper.  Add the sliced onions, potatoes, and eggplant and cook 30 minutes or more, stirring occasionally, until the onions reach a dark brown color and the potatoes are tender.  Add a pinch of sugar and the balsamic vinegar.  Cook a few more minutes and remove from heat.  Line baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.  Place tortillas on baking sheet and brush each one with remaining olive oil.  Sprinkle each tortilla with 1/4 cup of cheese, then mushrooms, then onion/potato/eggplant mixture, then salt and pepper.  Bake until the crust is crisp and brown - 5-10 minutes.  
Yield:  4 servings.

*Sprinkle with shredded fresh basil, if desired.
