Summer is the season for golden, juicy pineapples. Last weekend, as I walked past a pineapple display at Whole Foods, I just had to reach out and touch one...ouch! But I do think they are majestic and just versatile. Truth be told, I haven't bought a fresh pineapple in years. After sourcing this recipe roundup, things are going to change in the "Shop This" household. Sign me up for the Pina Colada Chicken Salad, that Smoky Pineapple Fresca and more.
