Easy Caramelized Onions

6 large onions
2 tablespoons olive oil

Peel the onions and cut them into 1/4-inch slices. Place the onions in a crock pot, and drizzle the oil over the slices.

Place the lid on the crock pot and turn heat on HIGH. Cook 8 to 10 hours, until the onions caramelize. They will have a deep-brown color.

Leftover onions may be refrigerated, covered, up to three days. They may be frozen up to one month.

Makes 3 cups.
