If you were lucky enough to receive a fresh pineapple with your fruit basket, you're probably wondering what creative recipe you can use it in. Naturally, this recipe calls for a can of pineapple, but if you have a raw pineapple - use your best judgment to make it work.

Ingredients:

• 1 can (20 oz) pineapple slices in juice

• 2 packages (4 serving size) or 1 package (8 serving size) lime or apricot flavor gelatin

• 1 1/2 cups boiling water

• 1 cup ginger ale or cold water

• 1/4 tsp. ginger

Drain the pineapple, reserving the juice. Cut 4 pineapple slices in half; set aside. Cut the remaining pineapple slices into chunks. Dissolve gelatin in the boiling water. Add the reserved juice, ginger ale, and ginger. Chill until slightly thickened. Measure 1 cup of the gelatin. Arrange some of the pineapple chunks in a 6 cup ring mold; top with measured gelatin. Chill until set but not firm, about 10 minutes.
