    6 c. ground zucchini (peeled)
    6 c. sugar
    1 (8 oz. ) can crushed pineapple
    2 T. Sure-Jell
    2 (3 0z.) or 1 (6 oz.) pkg. Jello, apricot, orange or raspberry.
    Boil zucchini for 6 min. Add sugar, crushed pineapple and Sure-Jell and boil for 6 min. more. Remove from heat and stir in Jello. Put in jars and seal or store in refrigerator.

    I like the orange and wildberry jello the best.

    I just sealed it in jars like regular jam. Make sure it is fairly thick before putting in jars, as it has a tendancy to get thinner with age. I still use it on pancakes or ice cream as well as on bread though.

    Yes it is the powdered kind. I guess it depends on how thick you like when you make as to whether to use more.
