Jalapeno Onion Salad

To make the Jalapeno Onions:

One red onion, sliced thinly

Olive oil

1 cup pickled jalapeno slices

½ cup apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons sugar

Saute' the sliced onions in olive oil to cover the pan until translucent. Add the jalapeno slices, apple cider vinegar and sugar. Mix well and continue to simmer until the liquid has been absorbed or cooked off. Remove the onion slices to a bowl to cool. The Jalapeno’s can be reserved for another time, thrown away or used in the salad.

Note: These onions are terrific on sandwiches, burgers, in omelets, and on steaks.

To make the Salad:

Baby mixed greens

Crumbled goat cheese (Chevre)

Store bought pralines

Place the greens in a salad bowl topped with the jalapeno onions, crumbled goat cheese and pralines. Lightly dress with your favorite salad dressing, although many people prefer not to add dressing because it is so flavorful.
