Pickled Red Onions

I pulled a bunch of red onions from the garden on Saturday and I remembered a recipe I wanted to make that you can find  HERE.  They are very easy to make and would be a perfect accompaniment to a light spring luncheon menu.  I love how the brine turned a lovely shade of pink from the red onions.  Nature holds so many mystic surprises for us.
 Make the brine
Place sliced onions in colander in sink and pour boiling water over them
Add the onions to the brine... Wait a bit.....
Enjoy!!

    1. Red, I think you will love them on salad or on a sandwich, crackers, anything. I found myself snacking on them yesterday. Leave it to the MOM crew to find another great recipe for us.

  4. I tried the Wild White Bean Salad. I love it. It has such great textures. The wild rice and giant lima beans (from Whole Foods bulk) are a great combination. The vinaigrette added just the right punch and sweetness to brighten up the flavors. I loved the crunch of the red bell pepper and didn't miss the onion, which,I think would have overpowered the other ingredients. Thanks so much for sharing. I look forward to making it often.
