EASY NAMASU (JAPANESE PICKLED VEGETABLES)
Our favorite Bento-Style meal usually always has a little side dish of Japanese Pickled Vegetables. Most times, just a teaser of a taste, leaving you wanting for more. Often made with just one vegetable, I've combined my three favorite into this one recipe. It is a simple recipe with lots of flavor.

EASY PICKLED VEGETABLES
This pickled vegetables recipe was handed down to me by my mom. It's been in the family for years. These sweet and tangy pickles are delicious whether you use homegrown cucumbers or store-bought ones. They're great to have in the pantry. -Joan Haliford, North Richland Hills, Texas
