Easy Pickled Red Onions
Pickled onions are one of my favorite toppings for fish tacos, sandwiches, salads and more. I love their pink color and sweet pickled flavor with a hint of spice. They are very easy to make at home and they’re a quick pickle, so you can eat them up the very next day!
These would make great hostess gifts! I used Casual Celebration style labels and tags to dress up my jars for easy gift-giving.
