Luau Ham and Glazed Pineapple Snacks
These delicious skewers of ham and marmalade-glazed fruit are perfect for your luau party. Easy to make and looks great with a decorated toothpick (silk flowers or Luau Umbrella Parasol Picks ). Just poke them into a pineapple and this snack can double as a centerpiece and be eaten too! (Makes about 36 servings). Recipe:
- 1 can of 15 1/4 ounce of pineapple chunks
- 1/4 cup orange marmalade
- 6 ounces thinly sliced cooked ham, cut into 4×1/2 inch strips
- Wooden toothpicks that have decorated ends like flowers or umbrellas, or other festive theme
- 1 jar of 10 ounce maraschino cherries
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, toss the pineapple chunks (drained) in the orange marmalade and coat.
- Thread a cherry (drained) through a toothpick or skewer.
- Wrap a ham string around each pineapple chunk.
- Then thread each wrapped pineapple on the toothpick.
- Take a pineapple to use as a base. If the pineapple is unsteady, you may need to cut 1/4 of the bottom off to create a stable base.
- Place pineapple onto a festive plate. Poke all skewers into the pineapple.
- Cover and chill for up to 2 hours. Served chilled.
- Another option: If you prefer to serve this as a warm snack, warm the skewers instead of chilling them in the oven on 325 degrees for about 30 minutes and serve immediately.
