Canning Peach Ambrosia – Vintage Recipe

This recipe was typed on a yellow index card and found in a large collection, date unknown. It looks like the source is a Fred Meyer promo (Fred Meyer Mayonnaise Sections is typed on the bottom). I’ve typed it below along with a scanned copy.

Peach Ambrosia

12 cups sliced peaches
12 cups sugar
3 oranges
1/2 pint (1 cup) FRED MEYER garnishing cherries

Combine peaches, sugar & diced oranges, let stand over-night.

Shred orange rind, boil until tender, discard water, add rind to fruit mixture.

In the morning drain off fruit juice, boil 20 minutes, add fruit & juice of lemons, boil 20 minutes, add cherries, boil 5 minutes.
