Description

My sister, Jean, found this recipe years ago. I always love it. Great for potlucks and BBQs. When sweetening, you may want to double or triple to taste.

¼ red onion, thinly sliced
¼ green bell pepper, thinly sliced
6 tablespoons white sugar, or to taste
¼ cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon wine vinegar
½ teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

1. Mix zucchini, celery, red onion, and bell pepper in a bowl.
2. Whisk sugar, rice vinegar, water, both amounts of vegetable oil, wine vinegar, basil, salt, and black pepper together in a separate bowl. Drizzle dressing over zucchini mixture; toss to coat. Refrigerate until chilled, 1 to 2 hours.
