Ingredients

Ginger Cream

  • 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped crystallized ginger

Pineapple

  • 1 medium pineapple (3 lb)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
  • 6 maraschino cherries

Steps

    Heat gas or charcoal grill. In small bowl, mix all ginger cream ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.
  • 2
    Cut 1/2-inch slice off top and bottom of pineapple. Cut off rind. Cut pineapple crosswise into 6 slices; remove "eyes" from slices. Drizzle both sides of pineapple slices with butter.
  • 3
    Place pineapple slices on grill. Cover grill; cook over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes, turning once, until hot and light brown. To serve, top pineapple with ginger cream; garnish with cherries.

  • Fruits offer a host of nutrients including vitamin C to accompany their great taste. Be sure to get at least 2 to 3 servings of fruit daily.
  • Purchasing pineapple have you in prickles? A ripe pineapple should have a sweet pineapple fragrance at the bottom of the fruit, and there should be no soft spots.
  • To each his own! Pass separate bowls of sour cream, brown sugar, ginger and cherries. Everybody gets as much of whatever they want, and it saves you the mixing step!
