Bacon Wrapped Shrimp and Pineapple

1 lb. thick cut bacon, cut in half
1 pineapple, cut into bite sized pieces
1 lb. shrimp, tails removed

This picture shows pineapple wrapped in bacon, no shrimp. I don't think you have to use toothpicks to keep it together as it bakes. If the bacon overlaps and you place that side down the fat seals it shut.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap each shrimp around a piece of pineapple then wrap the bacon around those. Lay them seem side down on an elevated cooking rack placed on a cookie sheet, or you can use a broiler pan. Lining the bottom layer with tin foil makes for easy clean up.

Bake in 400 degree oven for about 20 minutes, checking each 5 minutes after that.

They don't last long :)
