Mama's Cheese and Pineapple Salad

Mama's Cheese and Pineapple Salad

This is a recipe my mother has made since I was a child out of the 1960 Better Homes and Garden Cookbook. It is no longer in the newer cookbooks. It is a staple at our holiday dinners and always the first thing to go. She usually makes this the night before. I could almost skip the meal and put the bowl and spoon in front of me and I am done! ENJOY! ~ Pamela Schorr, Little River, SC
