I'm new to this, my daughter and I are both on the program and are looking for low-cal, low-fat eating ideas.  I love pineapple cake and until now I thought cake would be off limits for me.  I am going to try this with my Sunday dinner and see what my husband thinks.  He is always telling me you're on a diet you can't eat this or that.  Now I want to see what he has to say.  I love it when I can fool him with something delicious that he thinks I can't have.  He believes this myth that anything that tastes good can't be good for your diet.  Thanks a lot.

I made it and took it to a family reunion.  Nobody could believe it was low fat, only two ingredients and tasted so good.  One of my new favorites.  Spoon a little FF pudding on top and it is even better!!

I tried this and it wasn't very good...I didn't add water just the mix just the crushed pineapples...was I suppose to add water to it like it states on the box?

I think I will try it out, this week.

No you don't need to add water to it, I have made it several times now and it has turned out great for me each time.  What didn't you like?  Was it dry, or not sweet enough or just taste funny?  What mix did you use?  I have even tried it with a homemade soy and whole wheat flour recipe and it was good.  Topping makes a difference too.

This is my new favorite dessert!! I have a little piece with FF cool whip every night after dinner! It definitely satisfies my sweet tooth. 

You have it. You just mix dry angel food mix with 1 can pineapple with juice. Follow the directions on the box to mix & bake. DO NOT add any ingredients (ie eggs, water,etc) except the canned pinapple.

I gave the pinapple cake  a try and  what I have  to say is    YUMMY :-)  quick & easy

An absolute treat!  I have made this twice now and it is so fulfilling!  A great alternative for people who love pineapple upside-down cake (like me).  

One question:  does anyone have the the total carbs for a serving?  I'm bad at math, and plus I threw away the packages again before getting the info  :-0

I also want to add that even though it is FAT FREE, it is not CARB FREE and therefore slows down your progress if you eat too much.  I found that making only 1/2 the package of angel food cake mix with one of the small cans of crushed pineapple in an 8x8 pan works better for me ... less available if I get weak ;-) .....

here is a few more variations of the same cake ...

cherry angel cake - 1 can lite cherry pie filling and  1 box angelfood cake mix

black forest- add 1/2 cocoa to the cherry version

Mocha- 1/4 c water, 1 cup cold black coffee and 1/2 c unsweetened cocoa powder

pina colada- add 1 Tbsp coconut extract to the pineapple version

Pumkin- 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin, 3/4 c water, 1 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp pumiin pie spice

Spiced- 1 1/4 c water, 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger, 1/2 tsp nutmeg and 1/4 tsp ground cloves

Carrot- add 1/2 finely shredded carrots, 14 oz can of pineapple in juice, 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger, and 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Blackberry- 1- 15 oz can blackberries in natural or own juices

Blueberry- 1 can blueberry pie filling

The cherry is our favorite....yummy

 Sounds Great! I will have to try it, Thanks!

 I am going home to make it tonight and bring it to work.   My silly co-workers won't even be able to tell it is so good for them!   HA! HA! HA!

Peace everyone-

Thanks for sharing!
