As the weather cools, does the call of the tropics enter your mind. Warm sunny beaches, the sound of the surf.I had this moment on my way home tonight. I purchased two Pineapples for $1 each this past Saturday and tonight is the night to feature it at the dinner table.
I began by sauteing thin slices of Pork Loin in Bacon, Fresh sliced White onion and Yellow pepper. When the onions were well caramelized I turned off the fire and covered the Pork and vegetables with the current SamM salsa. While the Salsa warmed up in the pan I sliced 3 inches off the bottom of the Pineapple. I peeled off the skin, removed the center and diced it into large chunks.
In the bottom of a bowl I started with re-heated rice pilaf. Placed pork Loin on one side of the bowl over the rice, Topped it off with the cooked vegetables and salsa and carefully placed the Pineapple on top to finish covering the rice underneath.
Picture perfect it was when I presented it to The Wife
