Delicious Refrigerator Pickles

I don't know about you, but one of my favorite foods is pickles. This recipe for sweet refrigerator pickles has been a favorite in our family for many years. We make these almost every summer with our fresh cucumbers from the garden. They are an amazingly cool summer treat. I hope you try them and enjoy every bite. (Sorry the picture isn't the best; I didn't have the nice camera for this one.) Happy Eating! :) 





                        Delicious Refrigerator Pickles          

                                             
                               1 cup distilled white vinegar
                               1 tablespoon salt
                          2 cups white sugar
                          6 cups sliced cucumbers
                          1 cup sliced onions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the vinegar, salt, and sugar to boil. Let it boil until the sugar is dissolved. (This will take about 10 minutes.) Put the cucumbers and onion in a large bowl, and pour the vinegar mixture over it. Put it into an airtight container and let it sit in the refrigerator. 

Note from Nutmeg: The longer you let it sit in the refrigerator, the more flavor they have. I personally like them that way, but everybody has their favorites! :)
