Adding grilled fruit to a simple main course transforms it into something out of the ordinary. Here, ho-hum grilled salmon becomes new again with this maple-mustard-ginger glaze and a topping of grilled fresh pineapple.

Hands on time: Total time: 30 minutes Serves: 4

1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
4 (1/2-inch) slices fresh pineapple

In a bowl, combine maple syrup, mustard and ginger. Generously brush pineapple slices with mixture and then salmon.

Notes:
The maple syrup coats the fish, giving it a shiny glaze. When grilling fruit, make sure that the grill is clean before cooking.
