Perfectly Caramelized Onions in a Slow Cooker (Part 2)

After 10 hours in the slow cooker, you should have onions that are beautifully caramelized. Here are some ideas of how to use them:


-Add to pasta with goat cheese, thyme and arugula for a quick weeknight meal (pictured)
-Throw them in an omelet for a gourmet breakfast 
-Make a quick side dish by adding caramelized onions and a little black pepper to some couscous
-Grill slices of baguette and top with caramelized onions and parmesan cheese for a new twist on bruschetta
-Quickly saute with fresh corn, chili powder and a splash of lime juice for a topping on tacos
-Use as topping for your favorite sandwich or pizza
-Make a quick lentil soup by simmering lentils in vegetable stock until tender. Stir in caramelized onions and garnish with fresh flat leaf parsley.
