Summer Cucumber Salad

Ingredients:

• 7 cups thinly sliced cucumbers
• 3 medium onions, sliced thin
• 1 green pepper, chopped or sliced
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 cup vinegar
• 1/2 tsp. celery seed
• 1 Tbsp. salt

Directions:

Prepare cucumbers by peeling and slicing them very thin. (You can just peel part of the cucumbers making them look striped, and it's very attractive.) Slice onions and pepper. Add them to the cucumbers and sprinkle on the Tbsp. of salt, stir and set aside.

Bring vinegar, sugar, and celery seed to a boil on medium heat, stirring all the while to dissolve sugar. Cool, then pour over vegetables. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.

Serve as an individual salad on a bed or lettuce or ladle into canning jars and freeze until you're ready to eat them. Just defrost and serve for a fresh taste of summer.
