Turn on the Ninja Foodi to sear sauté on high.

Pour in 1.5 cups of white wine vinegar.

Add 1.5 cups of sugar to the vinegar and stir until dissolved to create a syrup.

Add 1 tablespoon of red pepper flakes to the mixture.

Prepare the vegetables by dicing them into about a quarter inch pieces, removing the pith from the peppers.

Once the vinegar and sugar mixture comes to a rolling boil, reduce the heat to medium-low to maintain a simmer.

Add the diced vegetables to the simmering mixture and stir well.

Simmer the mixture for about 10-15 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid boiling out the colors of the vegetables.

After about 20-25 minutes total cooking time, turn off the heat once the relish looks thick and vibrant.

Ladle the relish into jars, ensuring to include some of the syrup, and store in the refrigerator.
