I am looking for a recipe for Pickled summer squash.  Does anyone have a recipe that they can share?  My past father in law used to make these and they were so good.  I can't find his recipe anywhere.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm thinking it would be a lot like pickles (cucumbers) but I'm not 100% sure.

I've found this one..
SUMMER SQUASH PICKLES   

8 c. sliced yellow squash
4 c. sliced onions
1 tbsp. salt

Put together in large bowl. Sprinkle salt over and let stand for 1 hour. DO NOT RINSE.

1 c. vinegar
1 3/4 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. celery seed
1/2 tsp. mustard seed
1/2 c. chopped peppers, optional

Bring to boil in a pan large enough to hold squash and onion mixture. After this is boiling add squash and onion and bring to a boil again. Let boil for 5 minutes, then put in jars and seal.
