Special equipment: about 30 wooden skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F

Next, cut the pineapple into chunks by lopping off the top, slicing off the rind, cutting the pineapple into wedges, slicing off the hard inner core and then cutting the slices into chunks

Store half the chunks in the fridge for snacking

8

Place a chunk of pineapple on top of a shrimp and then wrap the whole thing in one of the half-slices of bacon
