Bacon Wrapped Pineapple Bites

Sweet and salty… now we’re talking :)

These tasty bites make a great appetizer.  These are perfect because you can make them ahead of time and can be served warm or at room temperature.  Fresh pineapple makes a world of a difference, don’t even attempt to make these with the canned stuff.  Two ingredients and a hot oven, can’t get any easier!

Bacon Wrapped Pineapple Bites
