8 large rolls
3 large sweet onions, sliced
2 large red/purple onions, sliced
8 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
3 bay leaves
8 sprigs fresh thyme
Small bunch of fresh parsley
6-ounce package Gruyere cheese
3 cups mozzarella, shredded

Directions:
- In a large stockpot, brown the butter.
- Add onions and cook over medium/high heat for 30 minutes or until beginning to caramelize.

- Cut off the tops of the rolls, then using a spoon or your hands, push down the center of the bread into the bottom of the roll, making a bowl shape.
