OLD-FASHIONED PICKLE RELISH (TRADITIONAL OR SPICY)
Once you try this pickle relish, you will never buy store-bought again. I usually chop the veggies in my food processor. I pulse them until they are finely chopped but still on the chunky side. You do not want them pureed. I am not sure about the yield, but I think it is approximately 10-12 half-pints. You can easily reduce that quantities and keep refrigerated after placing in the jars. If you are not going to water-bath the jars, make sure you sterilize them either in the oven, the dishwasher, or a pot of boiling water.

GRANDMA'S PEPPER RELISH
This recipe calls for a old time food chopper. In fact I use the very one that was my Grandmothers. This relish is great along side a roast beef & vegetable meal. Also on top of a hot dog. In my recipe, I am also using yellow peppers. Either way the relish turns out great. Just an added bit of color.
