Make Ahead Caramelized Onions image

Here is a great technique, using your crockpot, for caramelizing sweet or regular onions, which you can then use for onion soup, or a delicious Caramelized Onion Lasagna recipe I am posting separately. I am guessing at the amount it makes.

5 lbs onions, cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch slices
