Pineapple Cheddar Salad


Serve with any grilled meat or poultry...

Ingredients!

• 3/4 cup small bite size chunks of fresh pineapple

• 8 cups torn salad greens

• 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese

• 1/2 cup low fat mayonnaise (we used Hellman's)

In a large bowl, combine the greens, pineapple and cheese. In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, sugar and orange juice. Pour over salad; toss to coat.

COOK'S NOTE: I have made this with canned pineapple tidbits before and it is very good, but the fresh pineapple is so much better!
