DIRECTIONS

1. Prepare jam as directed:
   
   Tomato Rosemary Onion Jam: Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat; add 1 cup onions. Cook 3-5 minutes or until slightly softened; add 1/3 cup brown sugar, tomatoes and rosemary. Cook, stirring occasionally, 15-20 minutes or until almost all liquid is evaporated and jam is slightly thickened. Stir in remaining rosemary.
   
   Bacon Balsamic Onion Jam: Cook bacon in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat 5 minutes or until browned and cooked; add 2 cups onions. Continue cooking 3-5 minutes or until onions are softened; add all remaining ingredients. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture just comes to a boil. Continue cooking 35-40 minutes until almost all liquid is evaporated.
   
   Apricot Onion Jam: Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat; add 1 1/2 cups onions. Cook 3-5 minutes or until slightly softened; add apricots, 1/4 cup brown sugar, honey and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, 15-20 minutes or until almost all liquid is evaporated and jam is slightly thickened.
2. Heat oven to 400ºF. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil; set aside.
3. Spread 1 side of each bread slice with 1/4 teaspoon butter. Place half of bread slices onto prepared baking sheet, buttered-side down. Top each with 2 quarters cheese, 2 teaspoons desired jam and 1 slice bread, buttered-side up. 
4. Bake, turning once, 12-14 minutes or until cheese is melted and bread begins to crisp around edges. Serve immediately.
