We call it Pineapple Stuffing and it’s become a family favorite at every holiday!!
Can this recipe be halved? I cannot get out to get another can of pineapple.
Yes you can. Always made it for Easter.
Can this be made with different frui?
Oh my goodness, this was a staple on EVERY holiday table with my extended family (we grew up with it as an everyday recipe) that one of my sisters finally banned it! After a few years, we brought it back due to many requests. I LOVE the crispy edges of the pieces of bread that float to the top while baking! I live alone, but I think I need to make a half recipe for myself! Especially good with ham on Easter!
Yes! The only thing NOT leftover from our Easter dinner! Everyone loves it!
