Refrigerator Pickled Salad Recipe

I found this recipe here: Refrigerator Cucumber Salad I made it almost exactly the same, but changed the name for mine as I can see this being used for more than just cucumbers.

4 pint-sized canning jars

1.5 large thinly sliced cucumbers
1 large sliced red onion
1 medium sliced bell pepper
1 Tablespoon salt
1 cups white vinegar
1.5 cups organic sugar
1 teaspoon celery flakes
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
ice

Mix cucumbers, onions, bell pepper and salt; set aside.

Bring vinegar, sugar, celery flakes and pepper flakes to a boil. Remove from heat and add 2 large handfuls of ice. Stir until ice is melted.

Fill jars with vegetable mixture.

Using a funnel, pour vinegar mixture into jars until vegetables are completely covered. Push vegetables down carefully with wooden spoon, if needed.
Store in refrigerator for up to two months.
