Refrigerator Pickles

I just can't get enough of these pickles!

They are addicting for me!

Refrigerator Pickles

3 cups cucumbers, peeled and sliced

( I recommend slicing them 1/4 inch thick)

1 onion, thinly sliced

3/4 cup sugar

2/3 cup white vinegar

1/2 tsp celery seed

1/2 tsp mustard seed

1/4 tsp salt

Mix cucumbers and onion in a glass or plastic bowl; set aside.

(I put mine right in to the quart size jar)

Stir remaining ingredients together in a microwave-safe container.

Microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes.

Pour over cucumber mixture.

Cover and refrigerate for 24 hrs before serving to blend flavors.

Keep refrigerated. 

Makes one quart.

They are soft pickles, so be sure to slice them 1/4 inch thick!

And let me fill you in a on little secret...

after you've eaten them all, slice up another cucumber or two and pop them in the jar. 

After about 2 days, you have more pickles! 

I've done this twice so far and now it's time to make a new batch from scratch.

Oh yea....and the onions...they are wonderful to eat with the pickles, 

or put them on a sandwich! 

Yum!
