• 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
• 3 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
• 1 (7 ounce) container Greek yogurt
• 2 (16 ounce) cans pineapple slices, drained

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place pineapple slices in a shallow bowl. Combine lemon juice, 2 tablespoons sugar, and ginger in a cup and pour over pineapple. Cover and marinate for 2 hours.

Step 2

Combine remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and mint leaves in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Drain marinated pineapple well, reserving marinade.

Step 3

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Grill pineapple until soft and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Step 4

Stir 3 to 4 tablespoons of the marinade into the Greek yogurt and sweeten with extra sugar if desired. Sprinkle grilled pineapple with mint sugar and serve with yogurt.
