Bread and Butter Pickles (Microwave)

Ingredients

• 1 large cucumber, sliced in 1/4 inch rounds (about 2 cups)
• 1 medium onion, sliced into thin rounds (about 3/4 cup)
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup white vinegar
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. mustard seeds
• 1/4 cup celery seed
• 1/4 tsp. turmeric

Directions

Mix together all ingredients in a 2 qt. microwave bowl. Microwave on high 7-8 minutes, stirring twice or until cucumber is crisp-tender and onion is translucent. Ladle into a glass jar (rinsed in hot water to prevent cracking); cover. Cool slightly and refrigerate. Makes about 2 1/2 cups.
