Pickled Red Onion and Carrot Relish

Last month’s digital Pie Party was a total success—as in 1,500 participants of success! I had such a great time sharing my S’more Pie recipe and reading all of your posts that I couldn’t wait to be a part of this month’s digital Pickling Party.

I’ve become a grilling guru this summer, at least from a city dweller’s perspective. Although I can’t get my hands on a real, outdoor grill, I’ve been firing up the flames under my stovetop grill pan for Grilled Sirloin Sliders, Grilled Buffalo Shrimp and my latest creation, grilled Andouille sausage topped with my homemade Pickled Red Onion and Carrot Relish.

It’s the ultimate grilling condiment for transforming your everyday burgers, dogs and chops into all-star main dishes loaded with the perfect balance of spicy, sweet and tangy tastes. Best of all, it’s ready to eat in just 15 minutes and will last up to two weeks in your fridge. Dig in to the recipe below and share a link in the comments to your Pickling Party creation!
