Who ever thought of grilling pineapple?

Who knows, but whoever did is a genius. I absolutely love grilling pineapple; it become super sweet and is a perfect summer snack or meal.

A few things you can do with it:
--Make into kabobs
--Cut pineapple horizontally so its a sphere shaped and you can grill and add to a sandwich or a burger. Almost like a tomato
--Some people add brown sugar- thus its super sweet
--Add to salads
--Make a chutney out of it and add to wraps, pasta or just for dipping

"Grilled pineapple spears are vitamin-rich, low calorie and simple to make. Pineapple has natural sugars that create a caramelized crust from the grill’s high heat. This crust has an intense, citrus flavor and a light crunch, providing contrast to the soft flesh within. Serve grilled pineapple spears as an exotic dessert at an outdoor gathering or eat them as a light snack." http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/nutritional-information-grilled-pineapple-spears-1521.html


One of my favorites is making veggie kabobs and adding pineapple:
