AUNT DALE’S SHOEPEG CORN SALAD

Justin’s mom had 5 sisters and 6 brothers, and most of the sisters were really good cooks. Aunt Dale always made this salad if she knew I was coming to a family “get-together” because she knew her daughter Sue and I loved it. I can still see that quirky smile on her face with her Longhorn fishing cap on – we sure had some good times at the lake eating her yummy food.

1 can LeSueur baby peas, drained
1 can French style green beans, drained
1 – 2 cans shoe peg corn
1 c. chopped onions,
1 c. chopped green pepper (optional)
1 c. chopped celery
4 oz. jar of pimentos, drained and chopped finely

Mix together in a bowl. In a saucepan boil:

1/2 c. sugar
1/3 c. white vinegar
1/2 c. vegetable oil
1 TB water

Bring to a boil, cool a little, and then pour over vegetables. Refrigerate and stir periodically. It will keep in the frig for a week to 10 days.
