Quick and Easy No Recipe Meals – Grilled Pineapple Chicken Burgers

The following post includes Amazon affiliate links.  That means a small portion of your purchase will be paid to me as a commission.  The price is the same for you.  I like to share these links to help support the cost of running this blog and to be a resource to you.  I like to make things easy for you and as always…..keep it real.

I’ve come to realize that many of my real food meals do not include fancy “recipes”.  In order to keep things simple, quick, and easy for my busy family and avoid the fast-food windows, I often make quick and easy meals that only include a few ingredients.  It seems so silly for me to write up this type of “recipes”, but I’ve decided that I really need to for you to truly understand how we Juggle Real Food and Real Life.

Grilled Pineapple Chicken Burgers

One of my favorite summertime meals are these Pineapple Chicken Burgers.  They come together in just a few minutes and are really satisfying.  We often make extra for dinner and then pack them in lunches for the next day.  They warm up nicely but also taste delicious cold if a microwave or stove is not available.  The other thing that I love about this recipe is that the chicken is grilled.  In my house, that means my husband is in charge of the grill and I only have to put the sides together.  My husband really loves his grill!  He is always looking for an excuse to grill something. See that big smile?  Yep, that’s after a long day at work. That grill really makes him happy.  Who am I to get in the way of that happiness??
Happy Husband Grilling
Grilling pineapple just takes a few minutes on each side. Use good grilling tools and only flip over once.  You will have less waste on the grill this way and the pineapple will come off the grill with beautiful grill marks.

Pineapple Chicken Burger

See…….I told you that there wasn’t much to this recipe, but don’t let that fool you.  This will soon be one of your family’s favorite dinners.  Certainly, this will be one of your favorite dinners to make.
If you like this recipe, you might also like this Grilled Chicken Parmesan Burger recipe.

Looking for a tool to help making hamburger patties easy? You are going to love this Cave Tools hamburger press.  It makes shaping hamburger and chicken patties a breeze. They come out perfectly shaped and evenly sized for even grilling. It’s even simple to use so your kids can help make dinner. With a big family, we are always cooking for a crowd. My husband loves his “party grill” for home use and it fits into the back of a truck for transporting to sporting events and school fundraisers.

What is your favorite food to grill?  How many times a week do you grill during the summer?  Do you grill all year round?
