Pickled Zucchini

"My Mom gave me this recipe probably close to twenty years ago. It's really easy and not intimidating (which means there's no canning involved). Source unknown. We have late season zucchini this year which I harvested a few days ago-along with lemon cucumbers that were also added. I think radishes and/or carrots would be a delicious addition as well. The vegetables taste really good served over greens, especially arugula."
