Answer 2

You could do pineapple pizza - otherwise I wouldn't serve it.

Fruit Pizza is also a good choice or a fruit salad.

Here are a couple of recipes:

Pineapple Cream Cheese Fluff

• 1 8 oz package cream cheese, slightly softened
• 1 can crushed pineapple, do not drain
• 1 large package instant vanilla pudding
• 1 12 oz bin of CoolWhip

Place cream cheese in medium sized bowl and mush into chunks with fork. Mix in crushed pineapple - with the juice. Add the pudding and mix together and then fold in the CoolWhip. Pour into a serving bowl and refrigerate. May also add drained mandarin oranges.

Answer 3

A hawaiian pizza is a must (Pizza Hut makes a very good one). Also, fruit salad, hot dogs (instead of the bread use sticks), coconut pie (you can buy it ready in any supermarket), jell-o in different colors, and if you and your friends like, get some shrimp.

Answer 4

you can do macaroni salad, 'tater salad. coleslaw.
have veggie trays with dips, cheese and pepperoni trays with crackers.
maybe a spinach dip if you guys like that, serve in a bread bowl.
maybe see if your mom or dad can help you carve a watermellon in to a basket or boat shape and serve fruit salad.
have burgers, dogs, kabobs, or ribs as a main dish. or see if you can find pulled pork in the grocery store... serve it in bbq sauce with buns for sandwiches.
have 7-up punch with a block of sherbert in it and serve it in cups with slices of oranges and pineapples as garnish

It would be nice to have something authentic, like a pu pu platter:
Bacon wrapped bananas grilled.
Bacon wrapped pineapple grilled.
Just to have the kids taste....
