Steps:
- Bring to boil zucchini and pineapple juice until zucchini becomes soft. (3-5 minutes)
- Add Sure-Jell and bring to a boil.
- Once the zucchini mixture has come to a boil add sugar and crushed pineapple. Bring to a boil again and boil for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and add peach flavored jello. Stir for 1-2 minutes to allow jello to dissolve.
- Pour into sterilized jars (I like to use half-pints = 1 cup each). Clean rim of jars. This step is very important (if anything is on the rim the jar may not seal properly). Add sealing lid and ring.
- Process in using a water bath method for 20 minutes. Remove from water and let rest for 24 hours.
- After 24 hours confirm each lid sealed by pressing the "button" in the center of each lid. If it clicks it did not seal. See notes if this happens.
- Store in a cool dry place for up to 2 years. Refridgerate after opening.

This easy and great way to use zucchini was given to me by my Grandmother many years ago and is still requested by friends and family today. Any flavor gelatin will work, but I have found apricot and strawberry to work best.

FRESH PEACH AND ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE
This was listed in our local paper as coming from the New Jersey Peach Promotion Council. I entered the recipe as printed in the paper, but when I made it I sliced the zucchini very thinly, halved the amount of cheese, and left out the salt. I also used about 1 tablespoon of dried thyme since I didn't have fresh. My husband and I devoured half of it at lunch and decided to save the rest to have at dinner over basmati rice. I'd like to try it with fresh basil as well.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm zucchini and peaches: This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your jelly.
- Use a sharp knife to peel and slice the zucchini and peaches: This will help to prevent the fruit from becoming mushy.
- Cook the zucchini and peaches in a large pot over medium heat: This will help to extract the juices from the fruit and prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Add sugar and lemon juice to the pot: The sugar will help to thicken the jelly and the lemon juice will add a tart flavor.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes: This will help to thicken the jelly and allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove the pot from the heat and skim off any foam: This will help to remove any impurities from the jelly.
- Pour the jelly into sterilized jars and seal tightly: This will help to prevent spoilage and allow the jelly to be stored for up to a year.
