Vidalia Onion, Cucumbers and Jalapenos in Roasted Garlic Vinegar


This is one of those things which was always in the refrigerator and then on the supper table during the Summer when I was growing up.

Not really a recipe and I never remember my mother having hot peppers in hers, but I like the kick of a few jalapenos.

She used plain white vinegar and occasionally apple cider vinegar.  But for this batch I used Roasted Garlic Rice Vinegar.

2 small Vidalia onions, peeled and thinly sliced 
3 small cucumbers, peeled and sliced
1 small jalapeno, stemmed, seeded and chopped
1 T. finely minced garlic
1/2 t. salt
a few grinds of black pepper
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup of your favorite vinegar

Place everything in a medium sized bowl and place in refrigerator for a few hours before serving.

This is a great side dish during the summer.  Crunchy, vinegary, and tangy.  Yum.
