Green Tomato Jam

Green Tomato Jam
4 lbs. of green tomatoes, chopped
2 lbs. of powdered sugar
3 lemons, sliced very thin and quartered
In a large bowl, alternate layers of the chopped green tomatoes and powdered sugar. Put in refrigerator for 24 hours, stir. In a large kettle, bring to a boil and then simmer the green tomato and powdered sugar mixture for one hour. Skim off any foam. Add lemons and simmer for one more hour. Sterilize jars and lids and fill the hot clean jars with the hot tomato mixture. Fasten lids and put the tomato jam upside down on clean towels. Leave upside down for 30 min., or until when turned upright, the jar lids are sealed. When you tap on the top of the lid, it shouldn't give at all and be tight. Enjoy!
