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.

Cough Syrup Base Recipe

I saw this article yesterday: Preparing For The Winter and decided to give the remedy a try. This will be used for cough syrup or sore throat syrup.

16 oz. local raw honey
1.5 lemons (with rind,) sliced thin
1-inch knob ginger, sliced thin

Put lemon and ginger slices in 24-ounce jar. Pour 16-oz. honey over all, until completely immersed. Stir until all air bubbles are dispersed. Keep in refrigerator until lemon and ginger slices dissolve (may take several weeks.) The concoction will look like marmalade.

This can be used to flavor tea or other drinks by the teaspoonful. Can also be taken directly from the spoon as a remedy for coughs or sore throats.

Honey is an excellent 'preservative' and will last indefinitely. As this is used, you can keep 'topping it off' by adding more lemon, ginger and honey, as long as the lemon and ginger are completely covered.

Oven-Roasted Cheese-Stuffed Bacon-Wrapped Peppers Recipe

I got the idea for this recipe here: Cheese Stuffed, Bacon Wrapped Banana Peppers But, since I don't have a smoker or barbecue, I adapted it.

4 large Banana Peppers (mine were sweet peppers, but you could use hot peppers if you like)
Bacon - enough to wrap peppers completely (I did NOT have enough, so my peppers are not covered completely as you can see in the pictures)
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
1/2 block cream cheese

Wash peppers. Cut off top and de-seed the peppers, using thin knife so as not to cut the sides. 
Mix together the cheeses. Use a small spoon with a long handle to stuff the cheese mixture into the peppers. 
Starting at the top opening of the pepper, wrap bacon around the length of the pepper. Use skewers to hold bacon in place. Place peppers on grill.

Set oven at 400F (do not preheat) and place grill on middle oven rack. Cook for 30 minutes, or until bacon is crisp and peppers are tender.
