This is a not too sweet, not too tart pineapple lemonade - thus the name 'just right pineapple lemonade'. Feel free to use store-bought lemonade for even faster preparation.

- 1 fresh pineapple
- 1.5 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice

Combine 1 cup water and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat, stirring often. Simmer until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and allow simple syrup to cool.

Sweet Dill Pickles
These dill pickles, soaked in a sugar mixture, taste just like candy! They take some time to make, but they are a sweet treat.
Steakhouse Wheat Bread for the Bread Machine
I modified this recipe from a copycat bread recipe which made mini-loaves as served at a local steakhouse chain restaurant. Longhorn no longer serves their mini-loaves, but I can have this delicious bread at home anytime thanks to this recipe!
No-Cream Pasta Primavera
Spring veggies benefit from a quick roasting in olive oil and herbs before being tossed with penne. No cream here, just the fresh flavors of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and lemon. A beautiful dish.
