Pickled Salad

This is just so good. My husband put this together and I had to write it down. 

2 cans chickpeas

2 English cucumbers

1 red onion

1/2 cup cilantro

10 oz frozen sweet white corn

1 cup apple cider vinegar

1 1/4 cup sugar

1 Tbsp kosher salt

1 Tbsp powdered mustard

Ground black pepper to taste

1 tsp hot sauce

Mix chickpeas, cucumbers, onion, cilantro and corn in a bowl. 

Mix the rest of ingredients together, stirring until sugar is dissolved. 

Mix together and let sit for at least 2 hours. Mix occasionally as it pickles.
