FRUIT FILLED PINEAPPLE 1 medium fresh pineapple 1 c. (3 to 4 oz.) shredded coconut 1/2 c. toasted sliced almonds 1/2 c. sweet orange marmalade 1 (11 oz.) can Mandarin orange sections, drained 1/2 c. maraschino cherries (without stems), drained 1/4 c. light rum May substitute any fruit you want to use, bananas, peaches, etc. Cut pineapple, including leafy section in half lengthwise. Cut out fruit, leaving outside shell intact. Remove woody core; cut remaining fruit into chunks. I mix pineapple chunks, coconut, almonds, oranges, cherries and marmalade together. Place pineapple shells in dish or serving plate suitable for microwave. Fill shells with fruit mixture. Insert temperature probe so tip is in center of one of the pineapple halves. Cover with wax paper. Set temperature for 120 degrees and microwave on High. (On models not equipped with probe, microwave shells on High for about 10 to 12 minutes.) Measure rum (151 proof) into glass measure. Microwave on High 15 seconds. (Remove 1 metal tablespoonful.) Pour the rest of rum over pineapple. Ignite rum in spoon and pour over pineap- ple to flame (optional).
