Marinated Red Onions
We've had several requests for the Marinated Red Onion recipe that we use just about daily from Terri @nocrumbsleft
These marinated onions make every meal more delicious. They are the condiment that you never knew you needed and go with pretty much everything!!
I marinate my red onions in a high quality light olive oil, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar and oregano. I leave them on my counter uncovered in a little ceramic dish to use every day on my eggs, in a hamburger or on a salad.
Make enough to use over two days, and if after two – four days you haven’t used them up, use the oil olive oil to make a salad dressing, sauce up the onions and enjoy them, or chop them up and put them in a chicken salad. They stay fresh about two days on the bench. You might be asking yourself: why not put them in the refrigerator? I don’t, because when the oil solidifies, the magic is gone. They will perk up just about every savory dish you make.
Let us know if you make them and what you think.
