This is easy, delicious, colorful, feeds a large crowd and everyone loves it in the summertime.

Marinated Vegetables

Marinade:
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup oil
1 teaspoon salt and pepper each
3/4 cup sugar

Heat together over low heat until sugar dissolves, then cool.

Vegetables:

1 cup chopped green bell pepper
4-5 chopped green onions
1 cup chopped celery
1 can white corn, drained
1 can French style green beans, drained
1 jar (small) chopped pimentos
1 can leseur baby peas

Drain canned vegetables and pimento. Add chopped vegetables. Cover with marinade and let marinate 24 hours before eating. Use a glass dish only to serve.

* Best made the day before
** Drain a little of the juice from the serving bowl before serving onto a plate and use a slotted spoon to serve.

If this recipe doesn't sound like what you had in mind, let me know and I'll post something else.

Hildy, a thunderstorm is all around us so I'm logging off for a while. If you need another recipe, I'll respond when the storm has passed.

Easiest side dish in the universe for a cook out.
