MICROWAVE BREAD & BUTTER PICKLES 
1 lg. cucumber, sliced 1/4 inch thick (2 c.)
1 med. size onion, cut in thin rounds (3/4 c.)
1 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. distilled white vinegar
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. mustard seed
1/4 tsp. celery seed
1/4 tsp. turmeric

Mix all ingredients in 2 quart microwave bowl. Microwave high 7 to 8 minutes, stirring twice until cucumber is crisp-tender and onion translucent. Ladle into a glass jar (rinsed with hot water to prevent cracking). Cover, cool slightly and refrigerate. Makes 2 1/2 cups.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
