Microwave Bread & Butter Pickles!

Over the past few days I have had some neighbors give me some cucumbers. Our family doesn't eat raw cucumbers much, and I had contemplated on making dill pickles. But, I needed to have more cucumbers to make a batch. Then....I found this recipe! It makes just enough pickles to fit in a quart jar! It was perfect! They are really quick to put together, too. I made a batch last night and put them in the refrigerator. I tried one this morning (not recommended on an empty stomach!) and they were so good!

Here is the recipe:

Microwave Bread & Butter Pickles

1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. tumeric
1/4 tsp. mustard seed
1/4 tsp. celery seed
1/2 c. vinegar
1 c. sugar
2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 to 2 onions, thinly sliced (we don't do onions much, so I only used about 1/2 an onion)

Mix cucumbers and onions in a microwave bowl. Combine vinegar and spices, and add to the cucumbers and onions. Microwave on high 5 minutes. Stir. Cook on high 5 more minutes. Store in glass jar in refrigerator. Enjoy!

Anyone have any extra cucumbers you want to pass my way? Have a great day!

In Christ,
Sheri

I would like to encourage parents as they follow the path the Lord has set before them - which includes discipling their children, keeping a home, building relationships, and much more. I would also like to let others know about ebooks we are offering, as well as other resources that will encourage and equip parents to fulfill the challenge by the Lord set forth in Deut. 6:7.
