my sister, milann, brought this to a goddess retreat once and it was gone so fast. we all loved it. it has become our family's favorite dip! my son tried it with adding chopped ham as well.....was great that way, as well!

I made this for a Thanksgiving appetizer. Most people liked it, but no one was crazy about it. The pineapple/ranch combination is very different and doesn't appeal to everyone. I think if I made it again, I would cut the ranch down or just leave it out altogether.

At my get together for Christmas I made this and it was devoured by my guests! I didn't have a can of crushed pineapple so I put a whole can of pineapple chunks, without the juice in the food processor and it came out exactly like crushed pineapple. While I was processing the pineapple I added in the dressing mix and it combined beautifully! I will be making this again.

This is great! I used the whole can of pineapple, and find that it is easier to mix in the dressing powder at the same time. I serve it in a bowl instead of the ball. I use sharp cheddar. This is a HUGE hit!
