Juice pineapple and orange. Measure 4 cups
juice; pour into 5-quart saucepan.
Whisk sugar and pectin in medium bowl; add to
juice. Bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 15 to
20 minutes or until thickened, stirring frequently.
Jam is done cooking when it forms thick layer on
side of pan and registers 221°F when tested with
candy thermometer. Transfer jam to clean, hot
jars. Wipe off any jam from tops of jars; seal jars.
Meanwhile, fill stockpot with enough water to
cover jars; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce
heat slightly to stop boiling; carefully lower
jars into water. Add additional water to fully
submerge jars, if necessary. Return water to a
boil; boil 10 minutes. Carefully remove jars from
stockpot; cool on kitchen towel. Store sealed
jars at room temperature up to 1 year.
Juice watermelon, orange, mango, strawberries
and pineapple. Stir; serve immediately.
NOTE: Use the leftover pulp from this juice to
make Zucchini Date Bread. Use the low pulp
screen for the maximum amount of pulp.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 8x4-inch loaf pan
with nonstick cooking spray.
Combine dates and water in small saucepan;
bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove
from heat; let stand 15 minutes.
Combine flours, sugar, baking powder, baking
soda, salt, cinnamon and cloves in large bowl.
Beat eggs in medium bowl; stir in date mixture,
zucchini and juice pulp. Stir egg mixture into
flour mixture just until moistened. Pour into
prepared pan.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick
inserted into center comes out clean. Cool in
