Hawaiian Haystacks

This meal is something I had never heard of growing up. It wasn't until college when I went to my roommates parent's house for dinner and this was being served. I was very skeptical at first but once I tasted it, I was very surprised that it was quite delicious. So here is my version of Hawaiian Haystacks (where did that name come from??). Ingredients

2 chicken breasts
1 can pineapple tidbits
1-2 tomatoes, diced
coconut
chow mien noodles
grated cheese
rice
chicken gravy

Cook enough rice for however many mouths you need to feed. Boil chicken and cube (or use those nice cans of chicken from Costco).

Make the gravy. Two options: the first time I had this, they used a can of cream of chicken soup with the cubed chicken mixed in (works great, tastes great). Second option: I saw a package of chicken gravy in the cupboard and thought, "now that would work for the gravy!" so I mixed it up and it was delish. I liked it better this way but whatever you have on hand will work great.

Put all the other ingredients out. Some people also like green onions.

Everyone has their own order so here is mine: Rice, cheese, chicken, tomatoes, pineapple, coconut, chow mien, and gravy. It doesn't really matter though because you mix it all up anyway!
Look at that nice stack of hay!! Now dig in and enjoy!
