This pineapple obsession has taken me to another level this summer.
It looks like others are quite into pineapple lately though, too! I posted a meal prep photo on my instagram last week with this recipe, and I got so many requests for it. If you ask, I will deliver!
This dish will serve as a filling main course. We know we’re not satisfied fully after a meal of fried rice. The addition of edamame will bring some nice protein and healthy fats, and that pineapple will add some fibre and a kick of enzymes to help with digestion. You won’t be experiencing that uncomfortable post-meal bloat with this one!
If you’re looking for an easy dish to impress your pool party guests, or just a way to add some colour to your normal meal, look no further!
