Sometimes alternatives are needed to help use up produce. One of those options is refrigerator pickles. Long beans are particularly fun as it is very easy to cut them to size and help fill your jars. You don’t need fancy jars to complete this process. The red noodle beans will get preserved with the use of vinegar. Chopping these up to add to salads, sandwich spreads, or just as a snack is very easy. Fill the jars with the vegetables, onions, dill seed, and garlic as desired for a tasty treat.

You can even used a variety of vegetables if you want. Some refer to this mixture as Jardinière.
