One of the highlights of going on a Disney Cruise Line adventure is the variety of food and beverage offerings. This is on top of the magical moments with Disney characters, entertainment, amazing destinations, and luxurious accommodations found on the Disney ships. Disney Cruise Line has shared a recipe for its Grilled Pineapple and Black Bean Salsa to help people recreate this culinary offering that is found at Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.
The Grilled Pineapple and Black Bean Salsa is offered at several BBQs on the island. This is a refreshing recipe that is great to be served with chips or on top of a favorite protein. It is a good idea to leave extra time ahead of making this salsa to let the pineapple cool. With this in mind, know that the pineapple can be grilled up to two days before mixing it with the other ingredients in the salsa. With that in mind, let’s get to the recipe!
