| Ingredients: | 6 c grated zucchini (about 4 medium size)
1 orange, juiced 1/2 can crushed pineapple 1 package sugar free Tropical Fruit gelatin if you can find it; I used Strawberry/Kiwi Jell-O 2 c sugar, divided 1 lemon, juiced 1 lime, juiced Food coloring (optional) |

| Preparation: | Peel and grate zucchini and put in a medium pot on low
heat. Add crushed pineapple, and juice from one orange to pot, stirring constantly, bring to a boil. When it begins to all look like crushed pineapple and liquid surfaces from zucchini, add tropical fruit gelatin, and 1.5 cups of sugar to start. To get the tart of the rhubarb flavor, I started with juice from half a lemon, and ended up using juice from half a lime and the whole lemon. Boil down a little bit to remove some of the liquid. I poured most of the liquid off after the flavors cooked into the zucchini or the pie will be runny. Place in container and store in fridge for up to 3 weeks. Or drain off most of the liquid after cooking down a bit and place in pie crust and bake. I used 350 for 45 min. |
