Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine cucumbers, onion and green peppers.

Combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Pour over vegetables and let stand 30 minutes. Stir mixture occasionally. Evenly divide vegetables and juice among freezer containers, allowing one-inch headspace at top of each. Place covers on containers and freeze quickly.

When ready to use, allow one day in refrigerator to thaw.
