    Loved it. Substituted zucchini in place of the potatos. Added chicken breast and made a complete meal.
    Thank you so much!! :) - 6/21/07

    I added zucchini, yellow squash, and carrots... very adaptable recipe and yummy! - 10/31/08

    I tripled the recipe, used yukon gold and sweet potato, and added zucchini, yellow squash and butternut squash. Also used rosemary instead of dill as a previous poster suggested and a tiny bit of balsamic vinegar. Awesome!!! - 11/9/08

    I love this recipe! It adds nearly every color to the dinner plate and the pineapple and the sweetness it adds really helps set this dish apart! - 7/17/07

    Really enjoyed this recipe. I preped the recipe and made 3 individual packs ( i split it in half because I live alone). I love the idea that I could make them ahead of time. When I got home all I had to do was pop them in the oven. If you do make them ahead just drain a little of the liquid. YUMMY! - 8/3/08

    Incredible. I don't like dill, so I used rosemary.
    This is one of my favorites. Can't wait to make it again. - 7/8/08

    Cooked in the oven for company. Everyone loved it. Added zuccini, squash, carrots. Great compliment to pork. - 8/24/08
  • SKOOGYGIRL
    I like the sweet twist on a favorite dish. I put a lot more vegetables in and next time will keep the pineapple ratio higher, like that in the recipe. It was all eaten at the potluck dinner, even with less pineapple! - 1/18/09
  • MARYCORMIER
    This was great!!! I added some chopped sweet potatoes and asparagus. I roasted in the oven on a cookie sheet since it was snowing outside. The whole family was over for a birthday get together and they loved it. I made enough for 12 people with a little leftover for dinner the next day. - 3/30/09
  • CHERRIBABE
    By far, one of my favorite recipes on Spark! I love this and have made it twice since I discovered it a week ago!
    I use more veggies and added things like sweet potato too. Not mad on the tomatoes, but its a good way to use ones that are going bad. Great with brown rice or quinoa! - 3/2/09
  • SASSYMOMMIE
    My family loved the veggies made this way and was so easy to make. The pineapple just sets the veggies off...great work hun!! - 6/26/08

    Made into a complete meal by adding 6 servings of soy chorizo & 2 c. of drained & rinsed chickpeas. - 6/4/07
  • KIKILEBEAU
    like others, we added more veggies & added chickpeas to make a complete vegetarian meal. Will def. make again!!! - 2/11/09
  • CRAFTYPUGS
    Very Good! I didn't use potatoes, used zucchini & roasted it the oven & we loved it! - 7/6/07
  • SUPERTEACHER03
    This was yummy but a little heavy on the spices for my families taste. I like the idea I read of leaving out the dill and trying rosemary next time. Also, I will add the extra pineapple next time. Very colorful and so easy to make on the charcoal grill. - 6/29/09
  • JUDONBUG
    LOVED IT very nice cooked it two nights in a row didnt have any celery seed or salt though :( but without it was excellent will get some celery salt and try it with that next time. - 7/5/07
  • TARAAS
    This is great! Really tasty and easy to make. I prefer to use a skewer with chicken chunks and green/red peppers with cucumber chunks. Instead of pineapple, squeeze a lemon over the skewer for a zingy taste!

    Pretty good but would add some seasoning salt or something else to give it more of a zip. - 7/4/07
  • STEELERS12
    This recipe was a winner for me and my family. I did add a few vegetables I had on hand, and might not put in tomatoes next time. - 4/14/08

    Great recipe! Add cubed extra firm tofu for protein. - 7/3/07
  • TEACHNMOM1
    Very colorful and tasty. I don't recommend them in the oven however, because it takes a long time! Next time we are trying them on the grill. - 6/4/09

    Another one that we will be cooking a lot this summer! We loved the pineapple and pepper combination. We found some wonderful small sweet red peppers at our local farmers' market that we used. - 7/30/07
  • DEISTEXTREMIST
    Wonderful recipe. I just want to add that grilling pineapple on the BBQ has always been one of my favorite ways of eating pineapple. Cook it right on the grill in 3/4 inch slices until it gets some char marks. It really brings out the sweetness! - 6/21/09
  • DOTTIE061
    This is a great way to cook veggies. I will never boil them again. WHAT FLAVOR! WOW! - 2/15/09
  • JENSINA
    These were amazing! Not too sweet, and not too spicy. Just right! - 7/3/07
