Hot Pickle Mix
I first decided to make this back in 2012. We love it to this day and everyone "gobbles" it up! I love that you can chose your vegetables and go from there.  Some call this 'chow chow' but, I stick to the name Ball gives it:  "Hot Pickle Mix" because the horseradish gives everything in the jar a nice little "bite" ~Enjoy! Diane

yes, you can use chopped garlic, I would use 1-2 teaspoons at the max. Make sure the chopped garlic isn't in "oil" - oil can hold water droplets and promote bacterial growth in the processed jars
