BACON-WRAPPED PINEAPPLE
(MICROWAVE)
 
1 (8 oz.) can pineapple chunks, juice packed, drained but reserving 3 tbsp.
juice
2 tbsp. soy sauce
1/4 tsp. ginger
Dash of garlic powder
6 slices bacon, each cut into thirds

Combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, ginger and garlic powder in small bowl. Add pineapple chunks and let stand 1-2 hours or overnight. Drain.

Wrap a piece of bacon around each chunk and secure with wooden toothpick. Line plate or carousel with several layers of paper toweling. Arrange appetizers around outer edge with space between. Microwave at high until bacon is slightly browned, 5 to 9 minutes.

If you do not have a carousel, place appetizers in paper towel lined baking dish; rotate and rearrange several times during coking time.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
