Very good...and very light. Served with a little rice and it was a perfect spring meal. I agree that the sugar might be unnecessary. Cut it to 1/8 cup but will eliminate it in future efforts.

Excellent flavor! Incredibly juicy. I will leave out the sugar next time as there is enough in the juice. Will try to find unsweetened pineapple for the next time. I could eat this a couple times a week!
