This is a salad recipe my 6-year-old daughter Barbara came up with. It's actually delicious! The pineapple juice is tastier than any salad dressing you could add to this.
Living in Costa Rica I needed to change the recipe a bit: Instead of ham I used a cooked pork chop. Also used 2 types of lettuce to liven things up a bit. Didnt have any grapes on hand. Chunked up a couple of slices of pineapple and tried to puree them in my blender - no go, so added a couple of cherry tomatoes and about 1/8c apple Juice. The result was AMAZING! Even hubby who is not a big fan of salads LOVED this one - last week we ate in 3 days in a row! Thank you both very much for the inspiration!

Barbara, thank you so much for this great recipe. My son NEVER eats salad, but he really loves your salad recipe (pineapple and grapes - great idea!)...keep up the good work and publish more recipes for us to try!
Having ham left over from Easter, I made this salad. I used only ham, not chicken, and served it on a bed of fresh spinach, with fresh pineapple cubes, sliced grapes, dried cranberries, and blue cheese dressing. It was excellent and a fast fix.
I made this salad with my daughter and it was absolutely delicious! She loved it and so did I. We will definitely make this again and again!
