Salsa Time!

I love making jams and jellies.  I really do but lately I felt like there has been something else out there for me.  I did up some dill pickles the beginning of June but something still felt missing.  And now I think I know what it was - salsa!  So I made some today.  It was really very simple because I used the Ball® & McCormick® Recipe Cards Salsa Mix. 

Doesn't that look good?

I normally like a chunky salsa so next time I'll chop my own vegetables and make a chunky salsa.  Now how many jalapeno peppers should I add?  Hmmm...

Until next time, keep on jamming!

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum...

...and four pineapples.

From this... 

 

...to this

I recently had a Ball® Canning House Party, all supplies courtesy of Ball® Canning, including the new jar design pictured above.  For every package of Ball® Sharing Jars purchased, Newell Brands will donate 4 meals!   Every purchase will benefit Feeding America - the nation's largest domestic hunger-relief organization.

With the help of some friends and family, we made Pina Colada Jam, only 1 cup of dark rum to 4 cups of crushed pineapple.  I provided some tutorial during the process and everybody took part in preparations and finishing.  Afterwards, everybody got their own jar of Pina Colada Jam.  A fun time was had by all.  I think I would like to do this again.
