I don’t like pineapple, I wonder if these could be made with a can of Manderian Oranges instead.
Great site. Gives me inspiration for my fitness goals this year. I hate being overweight. lol
I dont see why not. I am not familiar with Mandarin oranges if they come “crushed” or not like the recipe calls for the pineapple. I am sure it isnt to hard to crush them yourself if they do not come crushed already. Actually that does sound better than pineapple, maybe I will try that instead.
