Put a New Spin on a Classic Recipe

It’s fun to take favorite dishes and put a fresh spin on them. One great update to the traditional holiday ham is the Aloha Ham, glazed with ginger and pineapple juice (100% DOLE® Canned Pineapple Juice). It adds a delicious flavor to the ham and it still works perfectly with other holiday meal staples like cranberry sauce and mashed potatoes. Dole Pineapple Cinnamon Cupcakes, a wonderful holiday dessert

Serve Sweet Treats

Cupcakes are fun holiday desserts. The Pineapple Cinnamon Cupcakes are a cinch to make. Bake them with 100% DOLE® Canned Pineapple Juice for a sweet treat.

Dress Your Home for the Season

Less can be more when it comes to decorating. Hang a simple evergreen wreath on your door to welcome guests.

Fill glass cylinders with pinecones and ornaments for a festive display. You can even spray some faux snow on the pinecones to give them a wintery feel.

Set a Cheery Table

A red and white checked tablecloth sets the stage for  a lovely tablescape. A few springs of greenery, along with berries and a single hydrangea makes a stunning arrangement. Small votives and shiny ornaments complete the look.

    What a lovely party! It definitely reminds me of all of the joy of the holidays. When I was growing up my Mother always used Dole Pineapple on her ham. She’d score the top of the ham and hold the pineapple slices in place with cloves. I looked forward to that every year.
