Sugar Free Red Pepper Jelly - THM Friendly





This past year I began following the Trim Healthy Mama lifestyle.  I bought the book and cookbook, joined a local THM group and away I went.  So far I have lost over 30 pounds and am enjoying many health benefits too!

Since starting Trim Healthy Mama I have learned to create or modify some regular recipes, one of which is red pepper jelly.  A regular on plan snack for me is 2 Ryvita crackers with low fat Laughing Cow cheese.  Everytime I had this snack, I thought about how much more delicious it would be with some red pepper jelly added on top.  So away I went searching the web and Pinterest to find a sugar free recipe but found nothing.  So I decided to try to create my own recipe.

I don't know much about canning, so this recipe makes a small amount and stored in the fridge for about a week.



Red Pepper Jelly Recipe

Ingredients:

1 cup finely chopped red peppers (approximately 2 peppers)
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
3/4  cup water
3 Tbs THM gentle sweet
Ground Cayenne pepper to taste
2 ½  tsp of gelatin (I used THM beef gelatin)

Directions:

Place chopped peppers, vinegar and water in a saucepan over high heat. 
Once it comes to a boil, turn down to medium heat.
Add gentle sweet and cayenne pepper.  
Let simmer for about 5-10 minutes or until peppers are soft.
Add gelatin and stir quickly and remove from heat.  Refrigerate and wait for gelatin to set completely.  
Then enjoy!
