Refrigerator Pickles - Summer Recipe

                            REFRIGERATOR PICKLES

Cucumbers are coming into season, and there's an endless array of recipes out there in which to enjoy them. This is one of my family's favorite salads. And it's fast and easy to prepare. 

Ingredients:

3-4 medium cucumbers, washed and sliced thinly

1 small onion, sliced thinly

2 Tblsp dill weed, chopped

1/2 cup white distilled vinegar

1/2 cup water

2 Tblsp raw sugar

1 tsp salt

1/8 tsp ground black pepper

Directions:

In a large salad bowl, combine sliced vegetables. Then, add all remaining ingredients in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Pour over cucumbers and onions, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. The flavors will intensify the longer the vegetables marinate.
