Cucumbers



I received this recipe back in '02 from a lady and my family loves them.

7 unpeeled cucumbers (I peel mine)
1 cup sliced onions
1 cup chopped green peppers (optional)

Place in a large bowl in layers. Scatter salt on top and let set 2 hours.

Do Not Drain!

Combine 1 cup vinegar, 2 cups sugar, and 1 tablespoon celery seed (optional--I don't use it often) and stir thoroughly. Let stand in the refrigerator.
