This Red Pepper Tomato Relish Jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that combines the sweetness of red bell peppers with the tanginess of tomatoes and a hint of oregano. It's perfect for adding a burst of flavor to your favorite snacks and appetizers.

Ingredients: 2 red bell peppers, diced. 2 ripe tomatoes, chopped. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar. 1 sprig fresh oregano. A pinch of salt.

Instructions: Add the chopped tomatoes and diced red bell peppers to a saucepan. To the saucepan, add the apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, and a small pinch of salt. After setting the saucepan on medium heat, bring the contents to a boil. Once the mixture thickens and takes on the consistency of jam, lower the heat to low and simmer it for about half an hour. Stir from time to time to avoid sticking or burning. Remove the relish jam from the heat and allow it to cool to room temperature once it has thickened. Finely chop the fresh oregano leaves after removing them from the stem. Stir the chopped oregano leaves into the relish jam that has cooled. Spoon the red pepper tomato relish jam onto bread or crackers, or use a spoon to spread it over crackers.
