Not paying attention, I used about 3/4 of a much larger can of pineapple (20oz??) in juice (not syrup). But everyone loved it anyway! -
I made this to take to a funeral and received rave reviews! I even had a few people ask me for the recipe. The only modifications I made were using canned sweet potatoes (drained) and I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg. Also I prepared it in the crockpot and cooked on high for 4 hours. Came out beautifully. Thanks!
