GRILLED SALMON WITH PINEAPPLE SALSA

Bring your grill out of winter hibernation by making this grilled salmon with sweet and sour pineapple salsa courtesy of Eat Spin Run Repeat. Salmon, fresh or frozen, is a great source of heart-healthy omega-3 fats and protein. Fresh pineapple is excellent in the accompanying salsa, but you can purchase canned pineapple (in water), and use the leftover juice to marinate the salmon.
