Ingredients:

Serving

6 oz cheddar cheese (cut in small cubes )
2 small onions (sliced in
6 oz salami (diced , may sub pepperoni)
4 small tomatoes (seeded & diced )
6 sweet gherkins (cut in 1/4-in slices)
3 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp pineapple juice
3 drops tabasco sauce
1 tsp black pepper
4 tbsp olive oil
4 oz pineapple chunks (diced )
fresh chives (chopped, garnish ) (optional)

Directions:

In a serving bowl, mix cubed cheese, onion rings, diced salami, diced tomato & sliced gherkins.
In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar, pineapple juice, Tabasco, pepper, olive oil & diced pineapple chunks. (I use a glass jar w/a tight lid & just shake to combine).
Just b4 serving, toss salad in dressing & serve garnished w/chopped chives as desired.
NOTE: To make ahead & avoid a mushy cheese effect, follow same prep except DO NOT include diced cheese in the mix of Step 1. Store the cheese ready to use in a sandwich bag or refrigerator container & combine w/salad ingredients at the same time the dressing is added just before serving.
