Sesame Pineapple

Mmmmmm, so I wanted to share my yummy salad topping that I made the other day! I was in the mood for a salad but something different and kind of asian inspired. So I went to my publix and picked up some pineapple and this amazing light sesame ginger vinaigrette, it is made by Wishbone you have to try it! I had everything else I needed at home. I used spinach for the salad base, then tomatoes, avocado, tuna, and then I made some sesame pineapple.


I love experimenting and coming up with ideas. Since food is normally always at the top of my mind I have little ideas just pop up in my head during the day lol! Here is how you make sesame pineapple...

It's super easy all you do is take a skillet spray some olive oil and then pour a lil sesame oil about 2 circles in it. Heat the skillet up to medium hot. Then take a can of chunk pineapple,(super cheap its only about 80 cents, get the type that is in it's juice not syrup) drain the juice and add the pineapple to the pan and let it sit there with out stirring it for about 4 min then flip them so they can brown up on the other side. Sprinkle some sesame seeds over the pineapples as they are browning, they should stick pretty nicely to the pineapples. Then after they have browned up to your liking, try not to over cook them, set the pan aside so they can cool down some. Once you make your salad throw them on top and enjoy!!


I loved this salad with the tuna, but I think it would be even more fabulous with some grilled chicken. I just didn't feel like thawing out any the other night, so I enjoyed it with the tuna. Hope you all enjoy this as much as I did!
