    1                    green bell pepper
    5                    jalapeno peppers
    3      cups          sugar

 Chop green pepper into 1/4-inch pieces. Measure 1/2 cup. Reserve rest for
 another purpose. Chop jalapenos into 1/4 inch pieces. Measure 1/4 cup for
jelly.
      3. Place the 1/2 cup green pepper and 1/4 cup jalapenos, sugar and
 vinegar in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Continue to boil 1 minute.
 Remove from heat; let cool 5 minutes. Stir in pectin and food coloring.
      4. Strain mixture through a fine strainer to remove pieces of peppers.
 Pour strained liquid into sterilized jars. Cover tightly and store in a cool
 place up to 6 months.
 
 Makes 2 cups.
