Chef Jim · 06-01-2010, 08:10 PM

Amber, that's some good lookin chicken salad.

Gore · 06-01-2010, 09:03 PM

Wow Amber, that is fantabulous. Beautiful plating and I love the pineapple.

bigabyte · 06-01-2010, 09:53 PM

That looks fantastic Amber!

Smokey Al Gold · 06-02-2010, 07:26 AM

Great job Amber! I finally found a salad that I would love to eat!

deguerre · 06-02-2010, 07:36 AM

That looks very tasty indeed Amber! I do wonder about the choice of "chicken salad" though.

(My first zero). Perhaps not having curry will help!

Yowza, a winner already...nice salad

What a great idea grilled pineapple in a chicken salad.
My husband asks for pineapple in his coleslaw, which I don't think is right,
but in chicken salad and grilled I can't wait to try it.
It looks fantastic.

For some reason (Throwdown) I decided to give the grilled fruit salad thing a try again. This time I skewered up some Pineapple and melon, sprinkled them with brown sugar, and threw them on the OTG while we were cooking up some burgers and foiled potatoes.

While these were cooking away, I decided that it would be great to come up with a streusel like topping to put over the top of the fruit salad. After digging through the fridge, I came across a block of neufchatel cheese that was close to expiring and figured, I'd go with a cream cheese type frosting for the grilled fruit salad so, I gathered together the following ingredients for it.

I then stirred it all together and let it cook for a few minutes over the low heat, just until it started to bubble (my stove runs quite hot).

When it was all done, I took the pineapple off the skewers, chopped it up, mixed it with the melon, through on some strawberries and blue berries, and then drizzled my cream cheese type frosting over the top. (please use my next pic for my Throwdown entry).

Thanks for looking. You can read more about it, the joys and the pain. Here

Um...what's all that fat free and reduced fat stuff?
Looks good Tom!

bigabyte · 06-02-2010, 04:09 PM

You even used fat free powdered sugar?

It looks delicious BTW

The scary thing is, I think the brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice are fat free as well.

I admit it, I've been trying to decrease my gravitational pull on smaller objects, trying, not really succeeding but, still trying.

Gore · 06-02-2010, 04:20 PM

It's hot and humid outside. That salad looks perfect! Mmmmmmm, blueberries!

Gore that looks fantastic. Guerry I figured I would give the old chicken salad a chance (can't blame a girl for trying). Hopefully I won't zero out.
