6 c. ground zucchini (peeled)
6 c. sugar
1 (8 oz. ) can crushed pineapple
2 T. Sure-Jell
2 (3 0z.) or 1 (6 oz.) pkg. Jello, apricot, orange or raspberry.
Boil zucchini for 6 min. Add sugar, crushed pineapple and Sure-Jell and boil for 6 min. more. Remove from heat and stir in Jello. Put in jars and seal or store in refrigerator.

I like the orange and wildberry jello the best.

Wow, Great way to use up zuchini!

I just sealed it in jars like regular jam. Make sure it is fairly thick before putting in jars, as it has a tendancy to get thinner with age. I still use it on pancakes or ice cream as well as on bread though.

thanks for letting me know.. Is the amoount of surejel that you use, the powdered kind? Thats all I have used before, and usually with fruit jams, I use the entire package..

Norene B 08-29-2010 08:42 AM

Yes it is the powdered kind. I guess it depends on how thick you like when you make as to whether to use more.
