Pineapple Cheese Casserole

By Addie

Have you needed a recipe that comes in 1st Place at every potluck you attend? Do you want to impress the in-laws with your cooking talents? Or perhaps you need a dish that makes everyone wonder how you have the time to create delectable dishes in the time you have as a busy woman? This week’s recipe is sure to accomplish any of these scenarios ~ using these simple ingredients!

I came across this recipe about fifteen years ago. Ever since, it has been a family favorite and is found on our dinner table at least once a month. I made the dish one evening while dating Jason (my now husband). He took a huge helping, thinking it was potato casserole. After trying his first bite, he was shocked by the mixed flavors of this simple dish. Pleasing to the palette, you will find a hint of salty mixed with the sweetness of the pineapple.


MY NOTES - Cut this recipe in half and bake it in an 8" square pan.The pineapple seems to taste better when each chunk is cut into 4 smaller pieces.
