I was very leery of this at first. Pickle relish in salad dressing? Weird. But I made it exactly according to the recipe, using cider vinegar, roasted red pepper, and marinated artichoke hearts (I did use the oil from the artichoke hearts instead of e.v.o.o.). This was really yummy! I love cucumbers, and I love the crunch of celery, which is why I decided to try this recipe (even though it sounded weird! :)), and it all came together really well. Good recipe, thanks.
