Pineapple Mango Bowl with Slivered Almonds

by Alli

Maybe it’s because I’m looking forward to spending a week at the beach in June. Maybe it’s because I love all things tropical including pineapple, mango, and tropical islands.

Or, maybe it’s because I’m yearning for summer. I can’t help it. I’m a summer girl and Pineapple Mango Bowl is calling my name.

5 Ingredient Pineapple Mango Bowl

Actually, this Pineapple Mango Bowl is a breakfast bowl. But it’s so pretty, we can rename it Pineapple Mango Snack Bowl or Pineapple Mango Party Bowl. It’s way too cute to place in a breakfast box. Free the Pineapple Mango Bowl!

This recipe is so easy, a kid could do it – except for slicing the pineapple in half and cutting out the fruit. An adult needs to do that part.

Ingredients You’ll Need To Make A Pineapple Mango Bowl (Complete Recipe Down Below!)

  • 1 fresh pineapple
  • low-fat Greek yogurt
  • diced mango
  • blueberries
  • slivered almonds

For two servings, we’ll need one for real pineapple – none of that canned stuff.

How To Tell If A Pineapple is Ripe

 Once a pineapple is picked, it doesn’t ripen any further. It is what it is.

There are three easy ways to tell if a pineapple is ripe.

  • Smell it – A pineapple should smell sweet, but not fermented. No smell means it’s probably not ripe.
  • Squeeze it – It should be firm, but it should give very slightly when you squeeze it.
  • Weigh it – Pick up the pineapple to make sure it feels heavy for its size. The heavier the pineapple, the juicier. More juice also means a sweeter, riper pineapple.

Let’s Make a Pineapple Mango Bowl with Slivered Almonds

 

Slice the pineapple in half length-wise. I think the crown adds beauty to this dish. However, if the crown of your pineapple is brown and dry, you can cut it off and toss it.

Carefully remove and dispose of the hard center core.

Cut out the fruit and chop it into bite-size pieces. 

You will notice that my yogurt is blue in the photo below. Yes, it’s blueberry Greek yogurt.

I asked my husband to stop by the grocery store and pick up low-fat Greek yogurt. I didn’t know I needed to specify plain yogurt. So, he picked up blueberry. Actually, it’s really good in my Pineapple Mango Bowl.

Arrange yogurt, chopped pineapple, chopped mango, blueberries, and almonds in rows in both pineapple halves. That’s it.
