I don't love to cook. Sometimes I don't even LIKE to cook! So, I'm putting the recipes that I've tried/liked/can do in one place in the hopes that the Farley Family won't starve.
Wash and cut rhubarb into 1 inch pieces. Place strawberries and rhubarb into kettle and bring to a boil.
Add sugar into boiling kettle and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in package of Strawberry Jello and let simmer for about 5 minutes more. Pour Jam into jars and seal.
**I have substituted sugar for Splenda and used sugar free Strawberry Jello and jam still turns out yummy!

8 cups chopped rhubarb
3 cups sugar
1 box strawberry jello (6 oz.) - use 1/2 cup plus 4 tsp. and save the rest for next time
Place rhubarb and sugar in a large pan and bring to a boil. Stir and boil for 5 minutes. Stir in the jello, mix well. Ladle into pint size jars, wipe lid, and place on the lid. Cool to room temperature. Place in the freezer.
I have always used canning jars which are tempered and can be placed in the freezer. Never have had a problem with cracking. Ever.
