Fruitful Pineapple Recipe (+)

Directions

If whole, slice pineapple, leaf end to stem end. Leave leaves on or remove, as preferred.
Using a sharp, flexible knife, cut away pineapple meat from one half, leaving approxmately 1/2" on the rind.
Remove core from the pineapple meat (it's the paler, firmer area) and chop remaining pineapple meat into bite-size pieces.
Gently mix chopped pineapple, including any juice, with the rest of the fruit to make enough to fill thepineapple shell generously - 3 to 4 cups, depending on the size of the pineapple.
Fill shell.
For best flavor, serve at room temperature.
If making ahead, chill but allow to warm up a bit before serving.
