1/2 cup green pepper, chopped
1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
2 tablespoons green onion, chopped
3/4 tablespoons seasoned salt
1 cup nuts (walnuts, pecans or your favorite) chopped

Tips:

  • Grate the pineapple finely: This will help the spread to have a smooth consistency.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to prevent the spread from burning.
  • Cook the spread over medium heat: This will help to prevent the spread from sticking to the pot and burning.
  • Stir the spread frequently: This will help to prevent the spread from burning and to ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Let the spread cool completely before storing it: This will help to prevent the spread from spoiling.

Conclusion:
