This was a tasty way to sweeten up a salad and to use up my pineapple! The onions added a little bit of savory to balance the flavors. Made for your Football win!

Delicious and so easy! I was afraid that 3 green onions would be too much so I only put 2 1/2 in the salad; next time I will out 3. The dressing was perfect for this salad. I only used 1 teaspoon of brown sugar. IMO, two would of made it too sweet. Made for ZWT9 for the Gournet Goddesses July 2013

This is a very delicious salad! My pineapple was overipe (the way I like it) so I left out the sugar. One note, try to use fresh pineapple, it is so much better than canned.
