A friend gave us this refreshing recipe, which immediately became a family favorite, especially with my mother and mother-in-law. For many meals, I'll prepare this crisp, colorful dish in place of an ordinary green salad. -Sharon Bielmyer, Holtwood, Pennsylvania Ingredients:
1 can (20 ounces) unsweetened pineapple chunks |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons cold water |
1 cup mayonnaise |
8 cups chopped tart apples |
2 cups green grapes |
2 teaspoons poppy seeds |
3/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted |
Directions:
1. Drain pineapple, reserving juice; set the pineapple aside. Place juice in a saucepan; add butter, sugar and lemon juice. Bring to a boil.
