Zucchini Salsa!

Image
It's that wonderful time of year when gardens start producing their bountiful harvest. But suddenly there are many zucchinis! What to do with a pile like this? When I have extra produce available to me, I usually go looking for either a salsa recipe or a jam recipe. I have been known to make red tomato salsa, green tomato salsa, blueberry salsa and even banana salsa! It would only seem fitting to have a zucchini salsa recipe to turn to when the zukes pile up. This has got to be one of the best salsas I have made. It is yummy with chips, with crackers, with veggies and, it is even yummy on top of cottage cheese!!

What a great recipe this is - it uses up those huge zukes that grow so easily in just about any home garden AND  it gets another veggie into the belly of it's eater. We made a few modifications to make it fit our liking. 12 Cups zucchini, grated finely (I don’t see why you couldn’t use yellow squash!) 9 Cups sugar 1 Cup apple cider vinegar 2 large cans crushed pineapple 3  3oz packages Jello, any ...

Around the Ranch

Just a quick update from around the ranch. Things have been busy around here with auctions, listing things on Ebay, soccer practices and games and just everyday life around the ranch. Here are a few pics one of the kids got the other day of some of the animals. See the picture blow of the VERY large goat . . . the debate is whether she is pregnant or has a tumor (haha! Just kidding on that). We are awaiting her  "popping". Jewels, the resident French Black Copper Maran roo: Peek-a-boo sheep! Two of last year's kids fighting for control of the little house. This little rooster is the coolest little guy around. Small but MIGHTY! :) There was an unexpected event the other day with a BIG wild hog - but I'll save that for later as I am running late right now on getting the chores done!
