"This is a great way to use up all those zucchinis you harvested from the garden. This is a sweet relish and is my favorite on hamburgers."

I've been making this recipe from my garden for the last 3 years, it's been a hit with anyone who has tried it, great on bratwurst, hot dogs, burgers, sausage patties, I have to make at least three batches so I have plenty to share with friends and family

This is our favorite for Hot Dogs. I don't even buy regular relish anymore.
