From a dear Southern lady, and friend of the family. Easy, tasty, and good for pot lucks and family gatherings. :)


2- 20 oz cans crushed pineapple, drained well
1 8 oz. (2 cups) grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup sugar
6 Tablespoons flour
1 stick butter, melted
1 "tube" Ritz crackers, crushed

Drain pineapple well. Grate cheese & mix w/ pineapple.
Mix flour and sugar, and add to pineapple and cheese.
Pour into greased square baking dish.
Sprinkle crackers on top, then drizzle melted butter over.
Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, till crackers start to turn golden.

I'm sure that will be good! I make pinapple cheese bread sometimes, and when I tell people what it is, they give me the "what are TALKING about" look :lol: Then they have some, and they really like it! :D

MoPen? It's just a side dish, but not a replacement of rice or potatoes. You just serve it on the plate instead of something fruity, or light you might have with dinner. :D

OK, is this like one of those Star Trek episodes where there's two different dimensions? The good Enterprise crew and the bad Enterprise crew?

I thought "someone" could not stand baked pineapple on pizza, another baked good that contains cheese :lol: :lol:
