It’s summer– that means pineapples are hopefully on sale at your grocery store! My local Sprouts has been pouring with them at really great prices. The other day I saw pineapples on sale for 98 cents a piece! 

Juicy pineapple not only tastes great, but it’s loaded with good-for-you nutrients like vitamin C, magnesium and B-6. I like to use pineapple in smoothies, alongside cottage cheese (is that weird? haha!), and thrown into stir frys. 

Here’s a video that shows you how to dice pineapple quickly, without using any extra equipment (like a corer). 


You can use diced pineapple in so many recipes! Here’s a couple to give you some inspiration: 

Pineapple Avocado Salsa

Need a sweet and spicy salsa to go with barbecue chicken, steak or hamburgers? Look no further! This Pineapple Avocado Salsa can be served with tortilla chips as a delicious side dish. 

Instant Pot Sweet & Sour Chicken

Moist, tender chicken pieces are covered with a tangy sweet n’ sour sauce, paired with pineapple, brown rice and an Asian broccoli slaw. 

Teriyaki Pineapple Shrimp & Zucchini Ribbons
