I’m assuming your grill is still warm and toasty from yesterday’s festivities. Let’s put some pineapple on it! Grilled pineapple is one of my favorite things. I love it even more when it’s a bit spicy like here and here. This jalapeño basil sugar rub is so easy to make and tastes like a summer party in your mouth. Party on you party people!

Ingredients for the Grilled Pineapple
1 pineapple
1 bunch basil
2 tablespoons coconut palm sugar or other favorite sugar
1/2 small jalapeño
pinch of salt
Directions
Chop up the pineapple into large cubes. Place the basil, sugar, jalapeño and pinch of salt in food processor to grind up – or you can use a mortar and pestle. In a large bowl, use your fingers to marinate the pineapple with the sugar rub. Place on skewers and grill them up!
