  5. Using two-inch round cookie cutters, cut out about twenty round pieces of the puff pastry and place on a parchment-paper-lined baking pans (2) about an inch apart.
  6. Begin assembling tarts by placing a teaspoon of onions directly in center of each pasty.
  7. Then sprinkle about a teaspoon of parmesan on top of the onions.
  8. Next, either place a tomato or several sliced mushrooms on top.
