This was pretty simple to assemble. I used fresh peaches (using the sample amount 28 oz.) The taste was awesome but the yield amount if way off. Did not get 6 - 8oz jars. So if you are making this for a group of gifts you probably should double but if this is just for the family it makes a nice amount. Will make again.. -
This was so easy to make and turned out delicious! I only had two cans of apricots so I cut the recipe in half and only used one cup of sugar. It still turned out very sweet and absolutely yummy. I got 3 - 8oz. jars and will definitely be making this again. Thanks for a simple, great recipe! -
Very good. Mine was SUPER sweet with 3 cups of sugar (I did 1 cup Splenda, 1 cup brown sugar and 1 cup regular sugar). I didn't have cloves, so I subbed all spice with excellent results. Could not have been easier. I did get six 8 oz jars and tied rafia bows on them to give as gifts. Very cute.

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes:
? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again.
? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time.
? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK
? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all
? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
