TICKLED PINK....PICKLED ONIONS!
I have played around with this recipe till I got it just right! And the drained juice from the onions is so good it any Mexican dish.

- 7. These should last for several weeks in the refrigerator.

PERFECT PICKLED ONIONS
Fresh, cold, and crisp pickled onions. So easy to make, you should always have these on hand to jazz up sandwiches, salads, charcuterie boards, tacos, and more. The leftover pickling liquid can be used to make dressings or marinades. They add a bright, tangy bite when served alongside rich foods.

PINK PICKLED ONIONS
An addictive new (to me) substance that I can't seem to stop eating. Fantastic on tacos/tortillas, hamburgers/dogs, as a relish to smoked or barbecued meats, on salads, in salsas, and just plain good straight from the jar. From epicurious/Bon Appetit.
