Pioneer Woman Pineapple Casserole Recipe

This sweet and savory dish combines pineapple, cheddar cheese, and Ritz crackers for a delightful contrast of flavors and textures.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and get ready to enjoy a new taste sensation.
One key trick for success is to make sure you thoroughly drain the pineapple juice before adding it to the mixture.
I love how this dish pairs perfectly with ham or chicken, making it versatile for any meal.
