HI y'all!
Sitting here snapping yellow beans to freeze, and thought I'd share
a simple, fast, small batch recipe for all of you out there
with too many zucchini! I'm making some tomorrow!

ZUCCHINI RELISH (MAKES 4 HALF-PINTS)

2 c chopped zucchini
1 c chopped onion
1 c chopped green or red pepper
2 Tb salt
1 3/4 c sugar
2 tsp celery seed
1 tsp mustard seed
1 c cider vinegar

MIX ZUCCHINI, ONION + PEPPER, SPRINKLE WITH SALT,
COVER WITH COLD WATER + LET STAND 2 HRS.
DRAIN, RINSE, + DRAIN AGAIN.
MIX REMAINING INGREDIENTS IN LG. SAUCEPAN,
BRING TO A BOIL. ADD VEGGIES, SIMMER 10 MINUTES.
PACK HOT RELISH INTO HOT STERILIZED JARS, LEAVE 1/4"
AT THE TOPS. REMOVE BUBBLES. SCREW ON LIDS + RINGS,
PROCESS IN BOILING HOT WATER BATH FOR 10 MINUTES.
COOL, REMOVE RINGS, STORE IN DARK, COOL PLACE.

MAKES 4 HALF-PINTS



ENJOY FELLOW FARMGIRLS!

Is this something that I can make with the WAY overgrown zucchini that I found in my garden after being gone for one week? I made zucchini bread with some, but that didn't even touch the supply of big fat zucchini that I have LOL!

Elizabeth, this looks close to the zucchini relish I am impatiently waiting on my zukes for!!! Mine has turmeric in it too and it gives it that beautiful golden color! I love it!
Liza Jane- when I made it last year that's what I used, was the big overgrown ones....I just made sure to take the seeds out. It worked out great!
