New Year's Winner = Hot Date!


Simple and tasty. Pitted date, stuffed with a pineapple chunk then wrapped with bacon.
A special thanks to my brother, Dino, for his lovely photography skills and to Rus, who does all the shopping. I'm helpless in a grocery store. I'm still not even sure what a date is. Anyway this one was simple to prepare and cheap, about $9 to make 24 of these.

  1. Very flavorful combo of salty sweet and the tangy taste of the pineapple. Everything tastes better when its wrapped up in bacon!

  2. Phoenix dactylifera commonly known as the Date Palm, is a palm in the genus Phoenix, extensively cultivated for its edible sweet fruit. Dates are the fruit of the date palm. They are dark reddish brown, oval, and about 1 1/2 inches long. Date skin is wrinkled and coated with a sticky, waxy film.

    And yes.. this was a great recipe.. easy and a great combination of sweet and salty.
