pineappleOne of the great joys of living in Florida is the constant supply of fabulous fresh fruit and very reasonable prices, making fruit salad the number one dish I like to eat in my nightgown or pajamas, preferably while relaxing by the pool.

I was expecting great fruit, after all, Florida is the orange and grapefruit centre of the world, but I didn’t expect the onions.  The red onions which are readily available here are potent but delightfully sweet, as well as being extremely good nutritionally. This, I must say is not always top of my list when it comes to reasons to eat something, but if something tastes terrific AND is good for you then you’d really have to be an idiot to turn it down.

So here’s the recipe for ‘sleepwear salad’ – tastes equally good whether you’re wearing a nightgown, pajamas or a robe!

  • 1 cup pineapple chopped
  • 1 cup red onion chopped
  • 3 tablespoons of blue cheese dressing

Mix together and enjoy! (Variations  – add parmesan cheese)

Makes a great breakfast or lunch and tastes great as a salad with dinner.
