For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the vegetable mixture. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables like sliced carrots or green bell peppers. If you don't have canning jars, any airtight container will work; just ensure it's properly sealed. These pickles are best served chilled and make a fantastic addition to sandwiches, burgers, or charcuterie boards.
