Author Notes
After last Sunday's 7.2 quake hit 100 miles east of our house, we were glad to gather together with friends for a comfort-food supper. My pal Jan brought a pineapple souffle, a traditional Midwestern dish, to pair with the Easter ham and creamy horseradish sauce. It is more of a bread pudding, in my opinion, but I never argue with anyone from North Dakota. I have cut the butter and sugar and played some with the ingredients. Canned fruit works fine, as long as you buy the pineapple packed in its own juice. Don't knock this until you try it! —Lizthechef
