Grilled or broiled pineapple with cinnamon on it and then served over top of plain Greek yogurt (with a drizzle of something sweet…I use no sugar added ED Smith syrup) is AMAZING! Love pineapple :)

What a great idea.

I wonder what other sandwiches we can make with Pineapple Buns?

Jaime – I just put them in a grill pan and spray with a little non-stick and salt. I have a picture of them in this post… link to ronisweigh.com

My FAVE way to eat grilled pineapple is drizzled with a bit of Nutella, but that isn’t the healthiest treat :-P Still, healthier than chocolate chip cookies or cake!

Ground beef seems so expensive these days; I’ll bet this would taste really good with ground turkey or even pork!

You should also try it over chicken. As well as some fresh pico or a fruited salsa – DELISH and loww WW+

YUMMY.

I have never tried brussel sprouts. How did you fix those on the grill??

The beans are cooked in the can in the factory, it is perfectly fine to heat them up in the can. :-) My DH used to work in a cannery, actually used to make a lot of different things commercially. Right now he oversees the Quality Control for a plant that makes mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese, as well as other items, both for home use and for restaurants.

This is a fantastic idea… just in time for grilling season! the can of beans is awesome- just like camping. i never think to do that at home but it makes sense.

Oooo that looks good. I want to try that but with spiral ham layered over a pineapple. (I love Hawaiian pizza so anything meat and pineapple is delicious).

I’m sure someone will tell me I’m killing myself but I do it with all cans that don’t have that white lining.

omg omg omg my husband just introduced me to the glory that is grilled pineapple! I was like…that sounds yummy and he did it. Soooo good!
Did you cook those beans in their can?? Is it safe to do that with the metal? I just know you can’t leave metal out in the fridge, but I didn’t know if it would release bht or whatever the hell that gas that’s in plastic…

It did soften enough. I didn’t even notice it!

How did you deal with the center part of the pineapple?? At least when raw, the center part is too rough to eat. Maybe cooking it makes it tender? (Loved the idea, BTW)

Haha, my first thought was what your husband thought of it!! I was suprised, but then I read that bottom line of your post. :) Personally, I think it looks delicious. Can’t go wrong with grilled pineapple!

Whoa, nelly! That looks amazing! I don’t like burgers much at all, but this might change my mind.
