"I saw this recipe circulating on Facebook and had to give it a try. My first attempt was not so great I had to triple the vinegar mixture to fill the jars. I have adjusted the amounts the original recipe called for. The original recipe author claims this keeps for 2 months. It has not lasted long enough in my fridge for me to validate that."

Original is 32 servings

The picture of these pickles caught my eye. It was bright and very pretty in the jars. My Mom loves pickles and so I made them for her. I used a red bell pepper as the contrast of red and green in the jar is striking. It made 1 quart and 1 pint for me. I put them in the refrigerator and Mom was up bright and early the next morning to try them. She was munching happily away when I got up and the cucumbers were so crisp I could hear her crunching them from across the room. She loved them! Half the jar is gone after three days. My sister-in-law came over, tried them and took the pint home! Have already given the recipe to family and friends and they loved them. Great recipe!
