Recipe Courtesy of Reluctant Entertainer “Bacon and pineapple pair very well together – we love the combo on pizza, so of course pineapple and bacon would be great in chili! This recipe packs quite a bit of punch, for only a few ingredients, which makes it not only a quick meal to make (have some last-minute guests stopping by?) but it’s so easy, anyone would feel like a master chef after completing this recipe.”
