Here is the roasted pineapple recipe.  You can make this and store it in the fridge for the week.  Finely chop it and use it in cakes or what not.  Put it on toast in the morning or on a bagel with some cream cheese…Yummy!  It’s great stuff, I keep this in the fridge myself.  It really livens up a lot of dishes, including savory.  Try it with some chicken and rice or on a pizza.  It’s awesome!!
