6 large tomatoes, skinned and quartered
1 large green bell pepper, sliced thin
1 large red bell pepper, sliced thin
1 large red or vidalia onion, sliced thin
3/4 c cider vinegar
1-1/2 tsp celery salt
1-1/2 tsp mustard seed

1/8 tsp red pepper or tabasco sauce
1/8 tsp black pepper
2 tsp salt
1/4 c water

Steps:

  • 1. ALTERNATE: You can substitute cherry tomatoes in lieu of regular tomatoes. If you do, it is not necessary to peel them, just cut them in half and add to the mix.
  • 2. Place prepared tomatoes, bell peppers, onion, and cucumber in a large bowl. Hand toss to combine ingredients.
  • 3. Combine vinegar, celery salt, mustard seed, sugar, red pepper, black pepper, salt, and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Allow to boil for 1 minute; remove from heat.
  • 4. While liquid is still hot, pour over vegetables. Chill for several hours or overnight.
