ZUCCHINI GINGER JAM
This zucchini jam tastes just like marmalade. The recipe was given to me by my Aunt many years ago, however, I improvised and made it taste even better. For a different flavor you may wish to try using a combination of Jello's, apricot and orange, peach and orange or raspberry and orange. This jam also freezes well.
