Mexican Pickled carrots



                                         Ingredients



               6 carrots peeled and sliced fairly thin
               2 yellow onions, thinly sliced
               1 16 oz jar pickled jalapeno’s with liquid
               1 cup vinegar
                                         Lagniappe


               Blanch the carrots in water in a sauce pan for 7 to 10 minutes.  Cover and
               cook them till nearly boiling.  Remove from heat and chill to stop them from
               cooking any further.

               Pour off the liquid from the pickled jalapeño’s, mix with the vinegar and
               bring to a roaring boil.

               While the vinegar is boiling alternate layers of onion, carrots, and the
               remaining jalapeno’s in a glass canning jar.  Pour the hot liquid over the
               mixture and chill for at least 8 hours prior to serving

                                Pickled Avocado



                                            Ingredients

               ½ cup white vinegar
               1 tbsp Kosher salt
               1 tbsp mustard seed
               1 tsp sugar
               ½ tsp whole pepper corns
               1 med chili (arbol)
               2 firm Avocados
                                             Lagniappe

               Mix all liquid ingredients in a medium, pot and bring to a boil.

               Let cool and pour over the sliced Avocado’s in a medium glass jar.

               Let sit for a couple of days to pickle (you might want to add some small cucumbers
               to the jar to fill up extra space; they pickle great in this brine.
