Have you ever been to Foodie.com?  I don’t think I’ve mentioned it here on Food Doodles before, but I’m a part of the Foodie 100 and also a part of the Glam Author program where I get a chance to try products and participate in events that might interest you and I.  This time around I couldn’t resist working with Dole on a recipe to enter for their contest, taking place on their facebook page.  Prizes include $10,000 for the winner of the 2012 Dole California Cook Off and $1,000 for the two runners up.  Not to mention a trip to California for the cook-off!  Sounds fun, right?  There’s also a sweepstakes that you can enter by entering your email address to win a trip to California to be a judge in the contest plus $500.  Just click to logo above to go to their facebook page where you can enter both contests.

For the contest, I’m submitting a grilled pineapple salsa. We’ve been eating a ton of salsa since I first canned some last summer.  I do like fresh salsas too, but I did something different this time and added grilled pineapple.  I wasn’t sure of how it would turn out, but trust me, it’s amazing!  Smokey, sweet, perfect.  I will do it again.

I know cilantro is either a love-it or hate-it ingredient, so if you don’t like it feel free to leave it out or sub some parsley instead as I’ve noted in the recipe.  I found out the hard way that my husband does not like cilantro(OK, it’s not so hard since it means I don’t have to share this salsa!) but I will make this again without it, for sure.

How do you feel about cilantro?  What’s your favorite fresh herb?  Mine is absolutely, without a doubt, basil!

    I’ve really fallen behind on visiting my favorite blogs. I’m sorry I haven’t visited you in a while… this salsa looks amazing! I’ve made pineapple salsa before, but never with grilled pineapple! Sounds really delicious! Thanks for sharing 🙂

    I love pineapple salsas and yours looks perfect, Heidi! In fact, grilled pineapple is AMAZING in guacamole, too. If you’ve never tried it, please do!

    I looooove cilantro!! It’s my favorite herb, followed closely by mint. I enjoy all the other herbs too, but these two are at the top of my list. We use a LOT of cilantro in South Indian cooking. It goes into chutneys, kosumbaris (traditional salads) and on top of most cooked vegetable or rice dishes as a garnish.

    Your pineapple salsa sounds absolutely delicious!!

    I love love grilled pineapple and love salsa! I don’ cake much for cilantro and if I have to choose one herb, hmm, that’s hard because I love mint and basil just as much!

    I love cilantro! It definitely makes the salsa! Corn and black bean salsa with fresh squeezed lime juice and chopped cilantro is heaven!

    I LOVE Pineapple Salsa izing it is so amazing, I have never made my own before – yours looks incredible!

    Justin hates Cilantro – he thinks it tastes soapy? I like a little cilantro…My all time favorite fresh herb hands down is basil – the smell is intoxicating wafting from the Garden!

    I’m on the fence about cilantro, I don’t reach for it when I’m creating recipes but I’ll happily eat it. I think my favorite herbs are basil and thyme by far though!

    I just bought a pineapple today! I think some of it may be destined for this 🙂 Favorite herb is a serious toss up between basil and cilantro. Both scream summer to me 🙂
