Pineapple and Cheese Salad image

Don't be turned away by the title, this is the most delicious, decadent salad. It's almost dessert. My Grandmother created this and passed it down to me. My co-workers have come to love it and my kid's friends all beg me to make it when they come over to the house. It's also a fav for holiday dinners!
