--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1       lg           Ripe pineapple -- end trimmed
                        -skin and eyes removed
   1       c            Coarse chopped macadamias
     1/3   c            Lt. brown sugar (packed)
           pn           Salt
   4       tb           Unsalted butter, melted

  1.  Preheat the broiler.  Cut the pineapple into 8 slices, each about
  1-inch thick.  For a decorative presentation you might want to cut notched
  grooves 1 inch apart on the top of each slice to suggest the grooves of a
  scallop shell. 2. In a small bowl, combine the nuts, brown sugar and salt.
  Add the butter and stir until well blended. 3. Place the pineapple slices
  on a baking sheet lined with foil. Sprinkle with a few tablespoons of the
  nut mixture or arrange in a graphic pattern over each pineapple slice. 4.
  Broil the pineapple slices about 6 inches from the heat until the filling
  starts to caramelize, about 1 1/2 minutes.  Serve hot.
