Pineapple, beyond just being pretty, is good for you. It's a great source of
Thiamin, B6, Vitamin C, and Manganese, and its bromelain offers
anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits, too!
Our family loves pineapple - despite the fact that two of them are mildly
allergic. Not carry-an-epi-pen-allergic, just swollen-tongue- allergic. This
doesn't stop them from indulging. My hubby was the taste-tester for this one...
he's still grinning (and still swollen).
Enjoy!
Grilled
Pineapple with Cheesecake Cream
Recipe by Chelle Stafford
serves 4
INGREDIENTS
4 pineapple rings, fresh if possible
1 tsp
coconut sugar (if you can't find this, palm sugar or a brown-splenda
blend will work)
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
4 Tbsp fat free cream cheese
4 Tbsp fat free greek yogurt, plain
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp
Truvia-Sugar baking blend (can sub 1-2 pkts stevia)
DIRECTIONS
Preheat grill to medium-high (I used my Foreman Grill)
Sprinkle coconut sugar over the tops of the pineapple rings. Dust lightly
with pumpkin pie spice.
In small bowl, blend cream cheese, greek yogurt, vanilla, and Truvia-Sugar
until smooth.
Spray grill with cooking oil (I prefer coconut oil)
Grill pineapple 2-3 minutes.
Plate pineapple, then divide the cheesecake cream between the 4 rings.
Sprinkle lightly with pumpkin pie spice.
Serve.
