Johnny Jalapeno's Pineapple, Cranberry, and Jalapeno Chutney

2Bleu's Note:

Simple to make, difficult to share, and even harder to put down. Excellent on baked ham. Being out on the prairie with a wagon full of canned goods, Johnny whips this up in no time. Look for more Johnny Jalapeno recipes here on Recipezaar!

My husband loves this!!! thank you

Used whole berry cranberry sauce for this recipe & just 1 small jalapeno, along with the rest of the indicated ingredients & came away with an OUTSTANDING chutney! Might very well be excellent on ham, but it is also a wonderful dip for chicken fingers & a spread for multigrain bread squares or crackers! Absolutely a keeper!

This is grand! I will make this anytime I need to have chutney RIGHT NOW. Delicious and made with ingredients that are easy to have on hand. I added some cayenne, cloves and cinnamon, but otherwise made as written. Thanks for sharing!
