It is always nice to add a layer of goodness to a salad or sandwich. This pickled red onions recipe does just that! It makes a great burger addition! The recipe is ready to use in a couple of hours and only gets better over time. My initial idea was to make them for a Cuban sandwich. Then the flood of tacos, burgers, and wraps ideas came at me! I hope you enjoy it!
There are many options to this recipe. Peppercorns make a great addition! Dill and other herbs do too. Sliced jalapenos or crushed red peppers will add some heat to the pickled red onions!
