Here's what I did today... I mean, besides mounds of homework, and you know, laundry. I picked up a case of peaches with my bountiful basket order last Saturday. I love peaches. Seemed like a great idea at the time. But here's the thing... no matter how much you LOVE peaches, a case of them is kind of a lot, considering only 3 people still live in my house. And here's the other thing... probably the most important of the two... I don't have any spare time. I mean zero. So I made this super simple freezer jam. Couldn't have been easier... and it is sooo yummy... and the best part? It was fast. You gotta love fast. Here's the recipe:
Jello Freezer Jam
5 c. fruit
4 c. sugar
1 (3
oz.) pkg. Jello
Let fruit and sugar set for one hour. Then boil ten
minutes. Add Jello and boil two minutes. Put in jars.
That's it. I swear. And it's so good. I used peaches with raspberry jello, but the combinations could be endless. I tripled the recipe and ended up with 9 pints (18 cups). Not too shabby. Now back to the schoolbooks...
