Red Pepper Chutney

My do nothing Labor Day just didn't happen, well not until about 3:00 in the afternoon. There is always something to do this time of year. I'll rest in the winter when it's too cold to be out.

I know I've been on a chutney kick, but this is sooo good and so easy a monkey could make it. This is what I'm making today. I would eat this on anything, plus what a beautiful hostess gift.
