Hello
I am trying to eat out of my cupboards for as long as possible, just buying the bare minimum but ~I have two tins of pineapple that I cannot get into my menu!
We don't really eat pud so does anyone have any ideas for using the pineapple chunks in a main course?

How about a sweet and sour sauce with pineapple chunks in?0

Sweet and sour something? Or with gammon? I'd make a pineapple upside down cake, but I'm a pudding kinda gal!0

Sweet and sour - either pork or meatballs with onions and peppers - and then make a sauce with sugar, vinegar, pineapple juice from the tin, soysauce, ginger and the chunks of pineapple - thicken with cornflour.“the princess jumped from the tower & she learned that she could fly all along. she never needed those wings.”

How about Hawaiian burgers - burgers with cheese, pineapple slice and coleslaw on top? Really yummy!!If you’re British in the living room, what are you in the bathroom? European!0

pineapple chunks and celery slices make a good stir fry combination :-)0

I don't think my family would eat a main course that has pineapple in it! What about using the pineapple for one of you five-a -day for breakfast?[SIZE=-1]"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad"[/SIZE]

thanks for the ideas -purpleivy, you may be right I will have to run the ideas past DH before I get too carried away (I love your signature too!)
Maybe we should just eat it as a snack one day?0 -
