Pistachio Free Pineapple Spears with Lime & Ginger
Sweet, juicy pineapple gets a serious upgrade here with a bright, zingy dressing of fresh lime juice, lime zest, grated ginger, honey, and a pinch of sea salt. The combination is bold and refreshing — the kind of thing that makes you reach for another spear before you've even finished the first. It comes together in minutes with no cooking required, just a quick whisk and a gentle toss. Torn fresh mint scattered over the top adds a cool, herbal finish that pulls the whole dish together beautifully. This is the kind of fruit dish that works as a light dessert, a vibrant side at a summer cookout, or even a snack straight from the fridge. Every ingredient is straightforward and naturally free from tree nuts, so there's zero stress about hidden allergens sneaking in through a sauce or garnish.
