Rhubarb Jam With Fruit

"I got this recipe from a friend about 30 years ago, and after the friend had also given me an abundance of rhubarb from her garden. This is a very easy jam to make. I love the added crushed pineapple, and maraschino cherries in this jam."

  1. I used frozen 'barb and some "pine-ini" (home-canned zucchini & pineapple relish), and they worked very well. Nice color and excellent flavor! The strawberry doesn't overpower the rest of the flavors, adds color (my 'barb is half green and half red). *My Three Chefs 08 - Ruh! Ruh! Rhubarb!*
