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 couldn't either, Molly. You know me with fruits and salty things.

But it really is good.

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

Then they have some, and they really like it!

Ok I like the sounds of this.............I know you eat it but how........is it a dip thing,

the crackers are already there

Is it a sidedish that you would use w/meat instead of potatoes or rice?

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.

My Dad use to make peanut butter, mayonnaise, banana and potato chip sandwiches, and wash it down with buttermilk (shudder).
