Pineapple-Cheese Salad image

I have no idea of the origin of this recipe. I know that my sister and I are the fourth generation (at least) to make this recipe. I warn you: it is an acquired taste, but it goes great with anything. To me, when I think of northern central Louisiana cuisine/southern food, this is the "salad" I think of.

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 head iceberg lettuce
1/2 cup cheddar cheese (the sharper, the better...but don't use white...it won't be the same)

15 ounces pineapple rings, drained

Steps:

  • Assemble the salad as follows:.
  • Place 2-3 (or more) lettuce leaves on a small salad plate.
  • Top with pineapple rings (1-2 per person).
  • Fill the "hole" in the pineapple ring with a 1/2 tablespoon to 1 tablespoon mayonnaise.
  • Sprinkle with cheese to "hide" mayo.
