Made for PAC 2010. Another great simple recipe. I had a bunch of ham and turkey in the fridge which I always make and keep on hand. I took out my turkey and will eat it tomorrow night, but just finished this recipe and tasted it with a piece of turkey. Great! I did have to buy the cherries, lol, but the rest is on hand. Easy, a great relish, condiment. With ham pork, pretty much anything. I will enjoy with my turkey for dinner tomorrow night. Excellent easy recipe. I love using a relish or condiment like this to jazz up roasted meats or grilled meats. It makes a standard chicken or piece of turkey great! Not just average. Well done. Thx for posting
