Number Of Ingredients 8

4 yellow onions, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick (about 1 lb.)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
4 slice bacon
1 Tbsp whole wheat flour
2 Tbsp cider vinegar
dash(es) sugar
2 Tbsp fresh chives, chopped

Steps:

  • 2. Using 2 forks, mix well and separate onion slices into separate rings.
  • 3. Place bacon and onion rings in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • 4. Cook until bacon is crisp and onions are light brown (about 10 minutes), stirring frequently.
  • 5. Sprinkle with flour, stirring gently so flour coats onions.

This onion salad is a great way to use up leftover onions. It's also a very refreshing and healthy salad. I added a bit of chopped parsley to mine for extra flavor.
