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

Mix all ingredients in a 2 quart microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high 8 to 10 minutes, stirring 2 to 3 times, until cucumbers are 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.
