In our house, summertime brings swim parties, barbeques and lots of fun.  To celebrate the end of summer, I’m throwing a luau swim party for the girls with a few friends and have found the perfect recipe to serve- Tropical Coconut Pizza with Dole Tropical Fruit.

Shopping at Safeway for Dole fruit was a piece of (fruit) cake.  I felt like a VIP when the produce manager saw me shopping for Dole Strawberries and asked if I would like to sample them first.  He opened a carton and pulled out a knife to trim the tops handing one to each of my daughters first.

After picking up fresh fruit like Dole Strawberries, Dole bananas and kiwi, I headed to the canned fruit isle to find Dole Mandarin Oranges.

Buy one get one free at Safeway- sweet. I’ll use one can for my Dole Coconut Pizza and one for a Chinese Chicken Salad.

 

Preparing the fruit pizza took just minutes, but must be done ahead of time to give the crust time to freeze.
