Quick pickled red onions have a bright, punchy taste and hot pink color, livening up many dishes. Here are some ideas for how to eat quick pickled red onions.

Sprinkle in between the layers of a hummus and vegetable sandwich.
Garnish a piece of whole grain toast with avocado, mashed black beans, an egg (optional) and hot sauce.

Add to a grain bowl such as Winter Barley Salad or Quinoa Bowl with Spicy Peanut Dressing.
Pro tip: Use the leftover pickling liquid to make a vinaigrette like this one made with pickle juice.
