I did not get the chicken marinade recipe from my friends, but my grilled cajun chicken post has a great recipe for grilled chicken. We added grilled pineapple and grilled organic bacon to the dish and this is what we came up with.

When eating bacon, one thing to steer clear of is sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate, which is found in a lot of lunch meats, bacon, sausage, and hot dogs. It is a salt that helps to prevent bacterial cultivation of foods and makes them appear fresh.  It can lead to formation of cancer-causing molecules that can result in tumor formation. Both sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate have been linked to significantly increasing the risk of colon and other forms of cancer, so be sure to choose only uncured meat products made without nitrates, and preferably from grass-fed sources. We purchase organic, uncured bacon, which does not contain nitrites or nitrates.

When purchasing your pineapple make sure the pineapple is not a Del Monte rose colored one from Costa Rica. This variety of pineapples is at risk for being genetically modified.

Eat Better. Feel Better.
