During the summer season, we survive on salads and smoothies. And probably, these two are the best ways to include tons of seasonal fruits in the summer diet. I love fruits in my salad. The sweetness and juices of seasonal fruits such as mango, strawberry, and pineapple give any salad a refreshing punch. My creamy summer pasta salad with pineapple or the classic fruit salad are amazing recipes with fresh fruits. More Reasons To LOVE Pineapple Salad

Salad vs Salsa
There is always a debate in my family about whether this is a pineapple salad or salsa. I call it pineapple salsa because I can scoop it with nachos. I find it very similar to mango salsa or tomato salsa. My husband finds it closer to a salad. He says the diced fruits and vegetables are far from salsa and remind him of an excellent tropical salad.
How To Grill Pineapple
There are a few straightforward ways to grill pineapple at home. BBQ: Use electric or outdoor BBQ to grill pineapple slices and bell pepper for the salad. Stovetop: You can roast pineapple on a cast iron skillet over the stovetop or on direct flame. I roast them on a direct stovetop flame. It gives a perfect smokey flavour and charred skin. Air Fryer: You can grill pineapple in an air fryer, also. Spray the air fryer basket with oil. Arrange pineapple slices and bell pepper on the basket. Air Fryer at 180 degrees Celcius till charred.
