We used a nice sweet vidalia onion for this recipe and served it over grilled steaks for lunch today. Yummy and Oh-so-simple to make! Thanks Lainey, for another great recipe.

Very good taste! I served it over chicken and brown rice and it was a great compliment to an otherwise bland meal. I can't wait to try it on different dishes!

These were great and the perfect compliment to a hot dog. My boyfriend was skeptical because he says that nothing is better than raw onions on a dog but he ended up choosing these over the raw. I halved the recipe for the two of us and we had enough to slather a good layer on three hot dogs total. Thanks for posting!

Great flavor really complimented my burger as a side dish. I can see where these onions would be great on a hotdog too or in a sandwich. Will be made again. ThanksLainey6605 for posting

Hot dogs are popular here, Lainey, but they are 1-dimensional about how they eat them (always w/a bit of mustard + crisp fried onions) & I got so bored w/them. I made a half recipe of this easy-to-fix relish today & liked it a lot. DH is gone on a fishing trip, I am having guests for lunch tomorrow & will encore your recipe w/cheddar cheese I also used on them today. I did not grill the dogs & bet they are even better cooked that way. Thx for posting this recipe & getting me interested in eating a hot dog again. :-)
