Pineapple Dessert
I am looking for a dessert my mother used to make many years ago. I don't know the name, but it has a graham cracker crust and cream cheese, crushed pineapple and I believe it had eggs also. Does anyone have a recipe? Thanks so much!

Elliecat's Casserole
Directions
This is one of those use-your-own-judgment recipes depending on the size of the family you have to feed. It's simple, delicious, particularly winter warming and a favorite with my family.
You will need a deep casserole dish, and potatoes, onions and bacon.
Grease the casserole dish, wash peel and slice the potatoes and onions. Cut the bacon into strips. Layer the ingredients into the casserole dish starting with the potatoes, then onion, then bacon finishing with the top layer being potato. Made a basic white sauce, a thick one is best, Pour the white sauce into the casserole so that the ingredients are well covered.
Salt and pepper to taste. Put lid on dish and cook in a moderate oven till the potatoes/onion are tender and well cooked.
You can serve with a side of green vegetable, peas, beans, etc. if you like but it is particularly filling and satisfying just on its own.
