POLYNESIAN STACK UPS

Polynesian Stack Ups image

This is a great recipe to serve in the warmer months. No cooking over the stove required. I enjoyed this recipe at my sister-in-laws home quite a few times many years ago. It is a great dish to serve to a large number of people. It is easy, other than the chopping, etc. The quantities vary, depending on the likes or dislikes of guests. I think you will enjoy it.
