Pineapples
In Season
Despite its tough bristly appearance, fresh pineapple is very easy to prepare, (and well worth the work!). It is a similar process to cutting a melon into chunks or slices. Simply cut the lengthwise into quarters, then cut the quarters into slices. To prepare for fruit salad, cut skin off of the slices, then cut the fruit into smaller chunks.
Spring — Summer
Nutrition
With valuable amounts of thiamin, Folate, Vitamin B6, Iron and Magnesium, pineapples are a delicious source of soluble fiber, and contain 40% RDI of Vitamin C.
