Canned apple sauce

I warmed my jars in my oven. My lids in a pot of water set to low heat and got the water boiling in my canner.  I quartered the apples and put them in my juicer until soft.  I drained the juice and froze it in ice cream buckets.   We ran the mushed up apples through the food mill then once I filled 1/2 my pot (10-12 cups) I added 1 cup sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon and warmed it on medium heat then filled my 7 500 ml jars and processed them in a water bath for 20 minutes.

Zucchini relish

Soak
20 cups grated zucchini
6 cups grated onions
8 red bell peppers (I used yellow, orange & red)
10 tbsp salt
I ran all the ingredients through the grater in my food processor and then soaked them in my fridge for 6 hours in my big popcorn bowl.

Then prepare the following:
6 cups sugar
2 tbsp corn starch
2 tsp tumeric
6 cups vinegar 
2 tbsp mustard
2 tsp pepper
2 tsp celery seed

Combine all ingredients and boil for 30 minutes then boil in a hot water bath for 15 minutes.

This recipe makes 12 500ml jars of relish.

The recipe I adapted came originally from food.com

Corndog muffins

These little guys turned out super delicious!  Use the cornbread recipe found earlier on the blog then spoon into a mini muffin pan.  Slice up some defrosted hotdogs and put one piece in each mini muffin.  Bake at 375 for 13 min.  I used 6 large hotdogs.

Balsamic Chicken

3 chicken breasts
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic (2 tsp powder)
Salt and pepper to taste 
2 tbsp butter
6 tbsp honey 
I melted the butter and honey together then mixed all the ingredients sliced up the chicken and let it marinate for 30 min. Then I poured it all in my wok and let it cook until done. I served this with rice.  It would be delicious as a stir fry with vegetables as well.
