This is one of my favorite recipes, I love the mixed flavors. It is great served over rice or with Chinese noodles.

1 pkg. frozen Chinese pea pods, partially thawed
1 large can juice-pack pineapple chunks (drain and reserve juice)
2 tbsp. cornstarch
3 tbsp. sugar
1 chicken bouillon cube
1/2 cup reserved pineapple juice
2 tsp. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1 pound small shrimp, cooked and shelled
2 tbsp. cider vinegar

Directions

Place pea pods and drained pineapple in crock pot.
In a small saucepan, stir together cornstarch and sugar.
Dissolve bouillon cube in boiling water.
Add with juice, soy sauce and ginger to saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring, and cook sauce for about 1 minute or until thickened and transparent.
Slowly blend sauce into pea pods and pineapple.
Cover and cook on LOW setting for 4 to 6 hours.
Add shrimp and vinegar, stirring carefully.

lovely dish

I tried this yesterday evening with my husband but altered it slightly to add water chestnuts and chopped broccoli. It turned out great! Nice family recipe. Thank you.
