Sharon, I am playing around with some cranberry juice to make cranberry sauce with stevia. (can't do the sugar, diabetic here) I got some chillover powder to try it with.

Sharon, I was wondering if you would share your recipe for zucchini salsa?
My son and I love peanut butter and banana sandwiches. We thought everyone did LOL!

Well, I thought I froze the last of the Broccoli, working on that today. We really didn't have that as much as I was hoping for.

I canned some Chili Sauce yesterday.

someone gave my husband several large pumpkins for free, so yesterday i canned 14 quarts I've come to the conclusion that I need a 2nd canner too. It feels great to be building up the pantry, like an insurance policy.

I'm also drying rose hips, parsley and potatoes as well.

I canned some cranberry salad yesterday. It turned out a lot like preserves, so I am planning to bake some brie and scoop some over the top as an appetizer for Thanksgiving. I am trying to get away from so much white sugar in our diet, so I converted the recipe to honey. It tastes a bit more tart, but I do like it that way a lot better.

Ingredients:
3.5 C fresh cranberries
1 large can (20 oz) crushed or bit pineapple, drained (reserve the liquid)
1 small can (11 oz) mandarin oranges
1/4 C lemon juice
2 C honey
1.5 C cranberry juice
1/3 C ChillOver powder & 1/3 C honey & 1/3 C pineapple or cranberry juice
1 C chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Cook cranberries with 1/2 C honey and 1/2 C cranberry juice in a saucepan until boiling. add pineapple, oranges, lemon juice, remainder of cranberry juice, and remainder of honey. Cook until mixtures comes back to a boil, about 15 minutes. In a separate bowl (I used a microwave safe measuring cup), mix the honey and pineapple juice. Heat the honey and juice mixture enough for the ChillOver powder to dissolve, stirring to prevent lumps. once the fruit in the pot comes to a boil, add the ChillOver powder mixture and continue to cook until the mixtures thickens slightly. Remove the fruit from the heat and stir in the nuts if you are adding them.

If you plan to can any of the fruit mixture, follow the directions for water bath canning. Ladle the hot fruit mixture into hot jars, leaving 1/2" headspace. Wipe down the rim of each jar, center the lid on the jar and tighten the band to fingertip tight. Process in boiling water 15 minutes. Remove immediately and set on a towel to cool overnight. You should hear the telltals "ping" of each jar as it seals. In the morning check each jar by pressing in the center of the lid. If it makes a popping sound, it didn't seal. Put it in the refrigerator and enjoy right away.

Always remember to remove the rings from your canned goods for storage as leaving them on will allow them to rust and make them difficult to get off later.
