Easy Refrigerator Dill Pickles
These easy refrigerator Dill Pickles are quick and fast to make! I love dill pickles and sometimes I have only one or two cucumbers in the garden ready at once so this recipe is perfect for doing one or two cucumbers at a time. Just make sure you eat them with in a week.
Now you can use glass jars or sometimes I will even use a plastic container that has a tight fitting lid on it. Which ever you decide just make sure the lid is close good so when you shake it to mix everything up no liquid will fly out.
