One of the most common requests I get as the garden harvests start rolling in are readers asking for food canning recipes! Whether you’re overwhelmed with tomatoes, swimming in cucumbers, or up to your eyeballs with green beans… canning is one of the best ways to preserve the food you grow in the garden.

Food canning recipes for preserving food from your garden

One of the most satisfying things about canning the food you grew in your garden is being able to open a jar of tomatoes from your garden to make spaghetti sauce from scratch.

Or cracking open a jar of homemade salsa from the garden in the middle of the winter. Amazing!

Home canned vegetables taste so much better than the stuff you buy at the store.

If you’ve been searching for food canning recipes so you can preserve your harvests, I have 24 awesome ones for you to try!

24 Food Canning Recipes That Will Keep You Busy

I’ve been canning for a few years now, and many of my favorite recipes come from the Ball Blue Book Guide To Preserving. I highly recommend that book, it contains a ton of recipes for all kinds of foods.

It’s also nice because it also shows you how to can food. So if you’re a newbie, that’s a great place to start.

There are also tons of excellent food canning recipes around the web, but searching for good ones can be overwhelming.

So, below I have collected 24 awesome recipes from some of my favorite bloggers to help you out.
