Zucchini Relish
“This relish is a good way to use up some of that over-abundant zucchini you have in your garden. It can be used with meat loaf, stew, sliced meats, and even hot dogs. We serve it at dinner and cookouts. It is a favorite with our guests.” –Knoll Farm Country Inn, Waitsfield, Vermont
