PASTA SALAD WITH PICKLED RED ONION
Everyone enjoys a good, cold pasta salad every now and then. I made this recipe after being inspired to try my hand at pickling red onions. Pickling adds such a unique flavor to the onions that I had try it in my tri-color pasta salad...my husband says it's a winner, winner(with a) chicken dinner!
