    I MAKE CARMELIZED ONIONS ALL THE TIME BUT, I SEASON THEM WITH A LITTLE CHILI POWDER AND OLIVE OIL. THEN
    I BAKE THEM IN THE OVEN AT 4OO FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR ON A DISPOSABLE FLAT TIN PAN. I EAT THEM BY THEMSELVES AS A SNACK. TRULY DELICIOUS!!!!!

    I make these often and use Olive Oil instead of butter. Always adds to whatever I serve them with. - 10/9/10

    I made this thinking I'd just freeze what I didn't use on dinner that day - big mistake. The frozen cooked onions in butter turned into mush upon reheating. From now on, I'll make this fresh ONLY. They tasted GREAT the day I made them - I used margerine and Pam instead of butter. - 10/22/10
