1 can butter beans, drained
1 large green pepper, cut up
1 (4 oz) jar pimentos, cut up

2 cups celery, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups cider vinegar
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons salt

Bring to a boil and pour over vegetables. Toss lightly with two forks. Do this several times as mixture cools. Cover bowl and refrigerate at least four hours before serving.
