Ingredients

Servings

For the Marinade –

  • ¾ cup apple cider vinegar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

For the Vegetable Salad –

  • 12 ounces petite peas frozen or canned
  • 11 ounce shoepeg corn canned
  • 4 ounce Pimentos chopped, jar
  • 1 cup onion diced; sweet variety
  • 1 cup celery diced
  • 1 cup bell pepper diced

Instructions

  1. Set a small sauce pot over medium-high heat. Add the apple cider vinegar, sugar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling stir and remove from heat. Allow the marinade to cool as you prepare the salad ingredients.
  2. Drain the petite peas, shoepeg corn, and pimentos. Finely dice one cup each of onion, celery, and bell pepper.
  3. Set out a large mixing bowl. Combine the canned and fresh vegetables in the bowl. Pour the cooled marinade over the top. Mix well.
  4. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least six hours, or overnight.
  5. To serve, drain off the marinade and serve as a side salad. Or serve the marinated vegetables in the marinade and allow people to spoon up extra marinade with the vegetables as a sauce.

Notes

  • You can use any kind of onion and any color of bell pepper you like.
  • This is a great make-ahead dish for summer parties in potlucks. It can be made several days in advance, and because the marinade is made with sugar and vinegar, can keep for up to 10+ days.
