Zucchini Relish

If you like relish on your hot dogs, you’re going to love this recipe.My sister-in-law Mary shared this recipe with over 40 years ago. I use it in deviled eggs, potato salads and of course, on a hot dog. Back when I had a big garden and did a lot of canning, I would give friends and neighbors a jar or two to try. They would always bring back the empty jars and ask if I had any more to spare.
