"This is a recipe from my husbands great aunt Melza. I use this when we have a bumper crop of jalapenos. One year I had over 100 jars of jelly! I like to use it with grilled lamb chops instead of mint jelly. Enjoy"

Tell Aunt Melza thanks for me. The jelly is so delicious. I added red food coloring as I will be giving it to friends and family for the holidays. I just had some over cream cheese and spread on crackers. A quick appetizer or in my case, snack.
