spacer Zucchini Jam

Today my husband and I went to the opening of a new store in our area. It's called Yoder's Country Market<snip>
Anyhow, I bought a cookbook, and while leafing through it I came upon the following recipe. Leave it to the Mennonites (or Amish) to figure out what to do with something that always gives you too much!
Mock Apple Butter

Further on down the page is another one:
ZUCCHINI JAM
Printer version of this recipe

6 cups grated peeled zucchini
6 cups sugar
2 tablespoons ReaLemon
1 8-ounce can crushed pineapple
1 6-ounce package orange Jello

Boil zucchini 6 minutes. Add sugar, ReaLemon, and pineapple. Boil 6 more minutes and add Jello. Put in hot jars and seal. Process in boiling water bath for 8 minutes.

I don't know if that is necessary if the jars and lids are hot and the jam is too. I rarely process my homemade jams, just turn the jars upside down for about 5 minutes and then turn them right side up. Soon you hear the POP that tells you they're sealed. Any that don't seal can be refrigerated.
