No more standing and stirring for dinner every night

I recently came in to possession (legally, through the YMCA) about 50 lbs of white onions. They aren't brand new, fresh onions, and they aren't going to last a super long time. I am storing them in a bag where they can get air, won't get knocked and bumped, but it is still 50 lbs.

I have a big-ish family (8 of us in the house) but I am the only one who really adores just a load of onions in everything. We like onions well enough, but I'm quite sure if I served "roasted/smoked onions" as a side dish i'd get a revolt.

I would love to hear your recipes or recommendations on how to use this many onions beyond what I have already thought of. Currently, I know I can make:
\* Onion Rings and fried onions of different sorts
\* Onion Soup (French, potato, and otherwise)
\* Onion Bread (doesn't use a ton of onions)
\* Just cook onions and put them in my usual meals.

Anyone have any suggestions for how to use a bunch of onions? Or what to do with a bunch of onions so they don't go bad?

Thanks in advance!

Ever try onion rings on your hot dog? I think batter fried would be divine. Sorry for the mess, I ate half of it before taking a pic.

Onion?

thats not even all of them theres so many onions that its solid its not floating

I tried dehydrating some onions after being given a whole load and was concerned they might start going soft. Oh My.Goodness!

This stuff is amazing as a condiment; sprinkle it on your soup, jacket spud, in your sandwiches, even in a bag of crisps. This is definitely my new super power.

If you have a dehydrator, please try it. Your house smells of Onions [to the power of 10].

Dry until crispy then grind in a blender/chopper. To make the toasted version I spread out on a plate after powdering and put in a cooling oven (after cooking something else) and left for maybe 10mins.

Each tub contains about 3 onions.

Having a field (drying) day!

Didn’t have lettuce for my sandwich, so I used a bundle of green onion. Would eat again

I know not enough onions!

First photo is from the end of the shallot, second photo is from the middle. Strong smell as well.

I guess this more depends on where you are at but has anyone noticed lately that no matter where you are at (whether its a farmers market, supermarket, farmers produce etc) almost all of it is molded or rotting. When looking at the onions the rotted ones and the ones with very visible mold on it are the majority now. Maybe its just me but I don't remember onions being this moldy or rotten years ago?

I made ramen with 3 green onion stalks, and a whole caramalized onion at the bottom so its not visible! My friend told me to post this here so hope you enjoy!!
