Sugar Free Pickled Red Onions

We just made some fantastic Sugar Free Pickled Red Onions!!

I love to add these sugar free pickled red onions as a topping on our low carb chorizo avocado tacos! Take a look! We used a low carb tortilla, guacamole, cooked beef chorizo, shredded jalapeno mozzarella cheese, cilantro, green salsa, sour cream, and crumble Queso Fresco. We also included a poached egg on this taco sometimes too! It’s loaded with flavor and the sugar free pickled red onions topped complete this taco!

How to make Sugar Free Pickled Red Onions

It’s as easy as adding all the ingredients in a sauce pan and heating it up. The hardest and most time consuming part about this recipe is cutting the red onion.

Sugar Free Pickled Red Onions Ingredients

1 large red onion, thinly sliced
1 1/4 c. apple cider vinegar
3/4 c. water
1/3 cup allulose keto friendly sweetener
1 tbsp. Pink Himalayan salt
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Goes great as a topping on various salads including taco salads bowls, and tacos!

Here are a few photos we took of this process:

Here’s a trick to help your eyes not start watering while you are cutting onions.  Place a moist wet dish cloth next to the onions you cut.  Cut onions are attracted to moisture so instead of the fumes getting to your eyes they will hit the dish cloth first.
