Squash Relish

Post by heretotheend »

If you like chow-chow or similar things you will love this. I like to eat it with pinto beans. As a matter of fact I always eat my pinto's in a bowl so I then put the relish on top of the beans. It is sooooooooooo good.


     4 cups chopped cucumbers
     4 cups chopped squash

     Soak in 2/3 cup non-iodized salt and 3 quarts of water for 3 hours and drain.

     2 medium onions, chopped
     2 medium green peppers, chopped
     4 ounce jar of chopped pimentos in water

     2 cups white vinegar
     2 1/2 cups splenda
     2 Tbls mustard seed
     
     Mix the last 3 ingredients together in a large pot and bring to a boil.

     Add the vegetables, bring back to a boil.

     Put in sterilized jars and seal.


     This makes 5-6 pints and you can use zucchini, white squash, yellow squash and cucumbers

     The lady that gave me the recipe said it is good with either combination of vegetables.

     I make this every year but this is the first time I have used splenda and it did not change the taste.

     Enjoy,
     Martha
