Red onions are full of cancer fighting flavonoids but they rarely get the chance to shine on their own, until now. We’ve simply baked sweet red onions in sweet balsamic vinegar. They are so... delicious.

2 medium red onions, peeled and quartered
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
