It’s pineapple season! You can’t walk into a grocery store without seeing these tropical fruits in the center aisle. So many to choose from and they are on sale too. Pineapples are at their best at this time of the year – super sweet and juicy.

Pineapple Season

This is my second pineapple for the season. The first one was used to make these quick and easy Chicken Pineapple Sausage Kabobs which turned out to be delicious. The caramelized pineapples were great and I was hooked. I had to get another pineapple.

We ate half of the second pineapple and I saved the other half for this Pineapple Ham Fried Rice. I used some leftover Baked Ham from Easter together with green peas and chili peppers to give the fried rice just a little heat. Love the sweet, salty, and fruity combination of the fried rice. It was yummy!

Pineapple Boat

When it comes to pineapple fried rice, nothing beats serving it in a pineapple boat. It just makes it that much more appealing. I will show you how to carve the flesh out in the video. It really is quite simple, so do not be intimidated. I promise it is totally worth the effort.

  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cup cooked ham (diced) (140g)
  • 1 red chili (seeded and diced)
  • 1 jalapeno (green) pepper, seeded and diced

    This looks absolutely delicious. Why dirty a plate when you can hollow out a pineapple? Love that idea!
