  1. Three pineapples all ripened on my plants at the same time. Now I have
    pineapples up the ying yang and been looking for ways to use them.

    Took some cilantro, a little canned chopped green chilies, green pepper,
    tomato, Vidalia onion and mixed it up with some finely chopped pineapple
    chunks and garlic salt. Served the pineapple salsa on the side with the pork
    roast I made tonight. Worked out to be a good combination.

    Now, I'm off to finding some more creative uses for my bounty. Suggestions
    are welcomed!

  2. Oh I forgot -- I used cumin and coriander in the salsa, too.

    The salsa sounds great! I love pineapple upside down cake. I'm not a
    fan of the cherries, so I put the fresh pineapple in the food processor
    to make "crushed" and the spread that over the brown sugar topping and
    then the batter. mmmmmm

    Just want to say I am insanely jealous. I live for pineapple. 🙂

    IIRC you can freeze it for use later.

    Omg, home-grown pineapple! I really need to move to a warmer climate.

    I like to cut 'em into wedges, rub with salt and chilli and eat. I think
    it's a Vietnamese thing 🙂

    w/teriyaki and the grilled. yummy 🙂

    Tropical chicken!

    Take one whole chicken and cut it in half lenthwise. (You could use
    chicken breasts or hindquarters as well.) Coat a cast iron skillet
    liberally with olive oil and lay the chicken in the bottom of it, skin
    side up. Sprinkle with black pepper and set aside.

    Take two mangoes, skin, seed and puree in the blender or food processor.
    Do the same with 3 cups of pineapple. Add 1/2 cup of minced shallots or
    scallions.

    Mix well and pour over the top of the chicken.

    Bake at 375 until done, depending on how much chicken you are cooking.
    Usually, about an hour will do it for a whole chicken.

    Enjoy!

    3-3 1/2-lb. pineapple or 4 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
    water
    1/4 lb. fresh ginger
    1/2 c. lemon juice
    approx. 3/4 c. sugar

    Trim pineapple of peel and core and cut into 1" chunks. Whirl pineapple
    chunks, a portion at a time, in a blender with 2 cups of water. (You
    can usually put about half the pineapple and half the water in the
    blender at a time and do it in 2 batches.) Pour puree through a wire
    strainer (or several layers of cheese cloth, or a jelly bag) into a
    large bowl, squeezing pulp to remove all juice. Discard pulp. Scrub
    ginger and cut in 1" chunks. Whirl ginger in blender with an additional
    2 cups of water. Pour through the wire strainer (etc.) into pineapple
    juice, squeezing liquid from pulp. Discard pulp. Add lemon juice and
    sugar to taste to the juice. Pour into a pitcher, cover, and chill
    about 2 hours or overnight. Stir and pour over ice to serve. Makes 7-8
    cups or about 10 servings.

    Grill peeled, cored slices on the barbecue until they are slightly soft
    and they have carmelized. Or skewer chunks and do the same.
