Instant Pot Caramelized Onions
Ready to change your fridge game? I find that having a jar of caramelized onions in the fridge can WAY bump up the flavor profile of almost anything savory you're pulling together. Cheese plate? Add some caramelized onions for dipping. Salad? Add some to your dressing. Pork chops? Better add some onions on top!
