Pickled Red Onions

Made with a handful of simple ingredients, these add flare to bowls, salads, and sandwiches.

Make a jar of these whenever you have a little free time. If you can slice onions, heat water, and mix a few ingredients together, you can make this in no time. You’ll have a great condiment to jazz up a variety of dishes. Or eat them on their own.

I keep canning jars on hand and picked up some reusable plastic lids that I use over and over. Try this once and you’ll be a big fan. In my household of three, these are gone in a week or less.

I use the pickling juice to make an addictive salad dressing. Watch for that recipe soon.
