Absolutely delicious! Easy, filling and a great way to stretch meat! I also added some diagonally sliced celery. This is going to be a regular! Thanks for sharing!!!

THIS RECIPE IS SO GOOD! I can't believe it hasn't been reviewed yet. I have made it so many times, that the print out is dirty. The pineapples are our favorite part. the best part is that its so easy! I usually use several baby carrots instead of 3 medium size ones, but that's just because they are always in my fridge! Thanks for sharing!
