I love the bittersweet flavor of caramelized onions but on the stovetop caramelizing onions is a laborious process of slow, constant stirring. Made in the slow cooker, caramelized onions require almost no attention. In this recipe, I have added sugar to the onions to ensure deeper flavor. Serve this luscious sauce over whole wheat pasta, Slow-Cooked Polenta (page 182) or Basic Grits (page 183). Complete the meal with a tossed green salad topped with shredded carrots for a splash of healthy color.
