Default Please help. What do you use tomato jelly, jam or preserves on?

I see all these yummy pickeled tomato, jam, preserves recipes. What I am clueless to, is what do you use them with. Like tomato jelly? What type of food do you use that on? I am trying to figure out, what canning recipes I should make. That I would use. However. I have the slightest on how or what type of food these recipes go with?

They go with just about anything. One of my favourite things is that they give you a little taste of summer in the winter.

Obviously - burgers, pasta....
Slather it on grilled chicken.
They make a great dip for a cheese & cracker tray.
Spoon it on top of Brie & bake....mmmm

Whenever I serve the family pot roast, I serve tomato jelly or tomato jam as a condiment. It is a delicious foil for the savory roast. It also works with meat loaf. Try it and enjoy!

I would love tomato chutney on a steak or some grilled chicken or shrimp. I think it would also be good with some okra and maybe some corn cut off the cob. On some crostini with a little goat's cheese. Mixed with black beans and rice. Yum! Now you've really got me wanting to make some!!

Similar to Stormy's idea above; I like pepper or tomato jellies/jams placed on top of softened cream cheese for a Holiday spread.

We use different salsas on top of a white fish-usually Cod-that is either baked
or put in foil and done on the grill. I'll bet these tomato products might work
well, too.

Just had toasted Italian bread with some of last year's green tomato jelly. I think it actually tastes better now than when I first made it. The tomatoes were the ones with no hint of color on them that I picked the day before Irene rolled through. It's also a great way to use those that don't stand a chance of ripening before first frost, and aren't far enough along that they'll ripen inside.
