ZUCCHINI, PINEAPPLE, GINGER JAM KICKED UP WITH HABANERO'S

Zucchini, Pineapple, Ginger Jam Kicked up With Habanero's image

I came up with this sweet and spicy jam after picking goodies from my garden and looking at Recipe #95600 which I posted 4 years ago. Had home growing Habaneros so added and what more do I need to say? This would be great served over a grilled chicken or fish.
