We have Easter dinner at my parent’s house every year.  My mom plans a delicious menu with a traditional ham.  She always asks me to bring my pineapple stuffing souffle.  It’s by no means a healthy side dish, but it’s a great compliment to ham and very easy to make.

Pineapple Stuffing Recipe

(really more of a souffle) – serves 6 to 8 (we are 10 to 12 and have plenty)

1 lg can of crushed pineapple – drained
10 slices of white bread – cubed
7 large eggs – fork beaten
2 cups of sugar
1/2 lb. butter
Cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350F

Melt the butter with the sugar in a bowl.

Mix in the bread, eggs, and pineapple.

Pour into a sprayed 13′ x 9′ casserole pan

Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit uncovered for one hour.

Let sit for fifteen minutes before serving.  I actually make it the night before and just heat it up before dinner.

And there you have it – a delicious and easy side dish for Easter that your whole family will like. Best of all, the recipe comes together quickly and with only six ingredients you probably already have on hand.

Pair it with lots of fresh spring vegetables, like peas in a light sauce with herbs, or steamed asparagus with a little bit of Hollandaise sauce whipped up in the blender. Take this stuffing to any gatherings or pot-lucks for an unusual and crowd-pleasing treat.
