Broccoli salad question

I don't have a red onion. Will a yellow onion suffice? Should I just omit the onion?


I'm just seeing this - so I might be too late to put my 2 cents in...

Just my opinion, but I don't think the yellow onion would give it the same flavor. I think you could omit the onion and it would be fine - but something about the sweetness of the red onion seems to go very well with the other ingredients. I think the yellow onion flavor would be too strong & would not blend the same way, you know?

But broccoli salad is great!

Hmm... I'm making it now. :jameo: Maybe I'll taste it without the onions and see if it even needs them. I'm not even really big on raw onions. :lol:

I think the red onions make the salad but I LOVE onions.

What time is Baja heading over? Maybe I could hitch a ride with him. :shrug:

I wouldn't hitch a ride with him....he doesn't know where he's going. :lmao:

Darn...BF just left to run errands and offered to pick up the onion. I told him not to worry about it. :ohwell: I'm afraid if I give him too much stuff to do I won't see him until 10 min before we're supposed to eat. :lmao:

I only have yellow onions at home, and if I went to the store I'd just pick up a red onion. :razz: I'm not going to the store again today. :yay:
Wait a minute......

You knew you needed this onion YESTERDAY, went to the store today, forgot to get it, now you're razzin on the BF???? :faint:
