  • Reviews

  • “I’ve made this recipe for years only I use crushed pineapple instead of the tidbits. People are often hesitant to try it because it looks and sounds so strange, but it is great! Thanks for posting one of my all time summer favorites!”

  • “Fresh, delicious and a sweet treat. This is not only a salad, this is also a great dessert. Very easy to make. I followed the directions and it came out as expected.I subed the spaghetti by short coloured pasta and I think you can use the pasta you like most for this recipe.The combination of pasta with apples and pineapple is great, sweet with a slight tart touch. Thanks for sharing this excellent recipe.”
