Pineapple Rice
Well summer is definitely here! We are in the middle of a beautiful heat wave. Summer heat makes me think of BBQ's and tropical fruit. Try this one with any meat you throw on the grill! A delicious side dish! This rice is sweet and flavourful and it goes especially well with any chicken dish.
