This is one of those recipes that just doesn’t sound appealing. I mean Green Pepper Jelly? Don’t let the name fool you. This a colorful great tasting jelly with the flavor of green peppers.
The beautiful color of this jelly does not come from the peppers but from green food coloring. Looks more appealing like with the food coloring. Remember we eat with our eyes.
Whenever we entertain and have guests over we almost always serve crackers with some sort of topping as an appetizer. The first time I served this Jelly I got a lot of weird looks. Then my guests gave it a try and absolutely loved it.
Unfortunately not all my guests like the taste of green peppers which means I usually have to offer a different kind of appetizer. Good news is I got you covered with this awesome collection.
