Bacon Maui

I made these up from the Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Thingies recipe. The nice thing is you aren't dealing with jalapenos, so no gloves, goggles, etc. (although that is totally worth it). These are SCRUMPTIOUS. And pretty, too. They went so fast, I didn't stop to take a picture. I was eating. There will be a next time. OH yes.

1 red pepper
12 chunks pineapple (drained if canned)
6 slices bacon, cut in half
cream cheese
toothpicks

Heat oven to 375.
Line cookie sheet with foil or parchment.
Remove top and seeds of pepper. Slice pepper vertically into quarters. Cut each quarter slice crosswise into thirds, so you have 12 pieces of pepper.
Spread each piece with a smear of cream cheese, then top with pineapple.
Wrap each with 1 piece of bacon and secure with toothpick.
Place on cookie sheet and place in oven for 20-25 mins, until bacon is crisp.

Serve!
