DH and I had this with dinner last night and both of us really enjoyed it. We think it's a healthier modified version of a dish we both grew up with. I used 1/2 a fresh pineapple which I crushed myself. The Weight Watchers recipe says, "The pineapple juice helps caramelize the potatoes, resulting in wonderful flavor and texture." It also says you can use canned sweet potatoes in water to save time if preferred.
