Marinated Calico Salad image

Steps:

1. Place all vegetables in a large glass container with a lid.
2. Place sugar, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper in a saucepan. Heat and stir until sugar dissolves.
3. Pour over vegetables, and gently stir. Refrigerate overnight. When ready to serve, stir again, then transfer to a bowl, using a slotted spoon to do so, as the marinate tends to make more juice overnight.
4. Note: you may add 1 finely chopped zucchini in place of the peas if you like, or in addition to them. Make it your call!

Ingredients

1 can french style green beans, drained
1 can shoe peg white corn, drained
1 can baby peas, drained
1 sm. jar pimentos drained
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (green, or red)
3/4 cup sugar, or sugar substitute
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup vinegar (i use apple cider)
1 tsp. salt,
1 tsp. pepper
