Strawberry Freezer Jam!

I love freezer jam! I believe it makes the best PB&J sandwiches and it is excellent on french toast and pancakes. So when Broulim's had strawberries for $1.50 a pint, I knew it was jam making time. So this is how I make Jam. So I just use the recipe that comes in the box of the sure*jell.
Ingredients

2 cups crushed fresh strawberries
4 cups sugar
1 (1.75 ounce) package dry pectin
3/4 cup water

Directions

  1. Mix crushed strawberries with sugar, and let stand for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the pectin into the water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and boil for 1 minute. Stir the boiling water into the strawberries. Allow to stand for 3 minutes before pouring into jars or other storage containers.
  2. Place tops on the containers, and leave for 24 hours. Place into freezer, and store frozen until ready to use.

I use some Beautiful Red Strawberries....
and these two products.


I wash my containers...

I puree my strawberries in the Blender...

I boil my Sure*Jell


Mix the two together...

And then I get the most beautiful and yummy freezer Jam! It is so yummy and so easy. The top container has something extra special in it. I threw in some yummy mango's :)
