August 20th is International Hawaiian Pizza Day, a pie made with ham and fresh (or canned) pineapple on a traditional tomato sauce and mozzarella base.
But, surprise: Hawaiian pizza was not invented in Hawaii but in Canada. There, it was made with Canadian bacon instead of ham.
Here’s the history of Hawaiian pizza.
This year, we present a recipe from Dole: Maui Pizza Rollups. It’s much faster to make than a pizza: just 15 minutes of prep time.
> International Pineapple Day is June 27th.

RECIPE: MAUI PIZZA ROLLUPS
Ingredients For 6 Servings, 24 Rollups
3 (8-inch) regular or whole wheat tortillas, warmed

½ cup finely chopped and drained DOLE pineapple
1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (whole or part-skim)
Optional: olives or capers
Preparation
1. ADD the optional olives or capers to the cream cheese, if using. Then spread the tortillas with the cream cheese and marinara sauce.
