Wash, core, and dice the red and green bell peppers into small, even-sized pieces. Seed and finely chop the jalapeño peppers, and finely dice the yellow onion.
In a large non-reactive pot, combine the diced bell peppers, jalapeños, onions, sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Stir the mixture well to combine, and place the pot over medium heat.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer uncovered for about 40-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the liquid has reduced and thickened.
If you prefer a thicker relish, stir in 3 tablespoons of pectin in the last 5 minutes of cooking, following the package instructions for dissolving it properly.
Once cooked, remove the pot from heat. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before transferring it into sterilized jars or containers.
Seal the jars and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to let the flavors meld. The relish can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or processed in a water bath for longer-term canning storage.
