Fiesta Onions

Handed down from my mother. This is a great salad for onion lovers and even those who don't care much for onions. I always get requests for this recipe. I prefer served at room temperature, but it holds well in the fridge a couple of days. Goes with any meal.

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup white vinegar
• 0.5 cup water
• 0.75 cup white sugar
• 6 Spanish onions, thinly sliced
• 0.75 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon celery seed
• salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps

1. Combine vinegar and water in a large bowl. Whisk sugar into the vinegar mixture until dissolved. Add onion slices and marinate at least 3 hours; drain.
2. Whisk mayonnaise, celery seed, salt, and pepper together in a separate bowl; add to drained onion slices and fold to coat. Marinate at least 2 hours before serving.
