Great taste. Good additions for hummus sandwiches, kidslikethem,too

This is a fabulous recipe.  I was limited on time so only let the veggies "rest" for 1/2 and hour and cooled the vinegar mixture in the fridge.  I also used 1/2 the sugar and vinegar b/c I don't like it too wet or sweet.  I substituted radishes for the celery!

This is a superb summer salad.  If you love bread and butter pickles you will love this salad.  I'm not crazy about cucumbers, but I really enjoy this salad.  I've made it early in the day before a cookout and a day in advance.  The cucumbers stay crispy, and it always gets rave reviews at cookouts.  I follow the recipe exactly and love to serve it with grilled chicken and creamy cole slaw.
Someone always asks for the recipe.
