Recommended Link: We found this Spicy Pickled Zuccini recipe a few years back when our home grown garden was producing tons of vegetables and we were looking for some ways to preserve them. The original recipe was intended for Zuccini but we’ve found it works great for all kinds of vegetables including carrots, squash, onions, bell peppers, and green tomatoes to name a few. And of course the ingredients can be tweaked to meet your preference. I personally like it extra spicy, so extra red pepper flakes for me.
