Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: about 35 minutes

Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil on medium-high. Add onions; cook and stir 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from heat. Unroll crust and place on ungreased baking sheet. Spread onions evenly over crust, leaving a 1-inch border. Arrange beets over onions and dot with goat cheese. Sprinkle with thyme. Fold about 2 inches of pastry edge over beets, crimping edges to fit. (Center will be uncovered.) Bake 20 minutes or until crust is golden. Slice into wedges and serve.
