Sweet Peppers....I love sub sandwiches with lots of sweet peppers. You know the kind they have on a Blimpie Sub. I love..love..love them!!!
I am so excited this year the peppers in our garden are doing great. We have so many that I am buried. With my kitchen being under construction I have put off my canning. In fact yesterday I visited 10 neighbors and gave away lots of goodies I would normally bottle...
I couldn't take it any longer and this morning I headed up the street to borrow a kitchen to do some canning. After all how could I let these beautiful peppers not be preserved!!!

Thanks for the recipe Georgie. I didn't know you could use Splenda in canning. I've got to try these soon. Come borrow my kitchen anytime!
