During the summer I grill a lot of meat and fish, and serve them with fresh salsas. Since my tomatoes up until now have been slim-pickings, I made Pineapple Salsa to spoon over pieces of grilled salmon with a dry spice rub. PINEAPPLE SALSA • 1 pineapple, flesh cubed into small chunks • 1 red bell pepper, diced • red onion, small dice • jalapeno pepper, small dice • juice of 1 lime • pinch of kosher salt • cilantro, leaves chopped 1. Combine ingredients. Amounts of each are up to you. SALMON SPICE RUB • 2 tablespoons chili powder • 1 tablespoon kosher salt • 1 tablespoon sugar • 1 tablespoon onion powder • 1 tablespoon garlic powder • 1 teaspoon ground cumin • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne 1. Mix together spice rub mixture. Rub into salmon fillet pieces. (Remaining spice mix can be kept in an airtight jar or zip-lock bag for a later time later use.) Arrange fish on a plate in one layer and chill fish, covered, for 2 hours. 2. Grill salmon and smother in fresh pineapple salsa. ENJOY! TAKE a LOOK:

I dropped in to see if there was a "Sunday mornings at my house"..... looks like Saturday night's meal was a delight. Beautiful pineapple drawing... yours I assume? You have a flair for life that is a joy to see!

Hi Kate -- Yes, no "Sunday Mornings at My House" today. We were in Iowa for Ragbrai (the bike ride across Iowa) until late yesterday. My husband rode all week. We came home, I made dinner, and we all slept late this morning '-) Too tired for breakfast!

Hi Eileen, great drawing, recipe and pineapple-chopping technique. Talk about proper bite size. Another winner from P-to-P. ;-)

Hi Eileen! Kevan and I made this for dinner tonight, and it was delicious with a little red quinoa on the side. We're growing herbs on our little German patio, but no cilantro :) So I subbed some basil and mint and it seemed to work alright. Kevan said to be sure to tell you how much he enjoyed the recipe -- he might be your next frequent follower!
