Tonight we made a delicious tropical meal served in a fresh pineapple bowl!
The juicy, sliced teriyaki pork was baked and ready in just 30 minutes and served with coconut rice, pineapple mango salsa, and crunchy broccoli.
I love shopping at our local military commissary, especially for the great deals and selection on meats! The meat market has a huge variety of just about every meat including my family’s favorite: pork!
During our bimonthly grocery trips I stock up on fresh pork including tenderloins, roasts, and chops.
The girls helped me pick out a delicious Smithfield® Teriyaki Marinated Fresh Pork Tenderloin
for dinner. We decided it would be fun to make it tropical and serve it with fruit salsa in pineapple bowls!

- Meanwhile, make the rice using 1 cup uncooked Jasmine rice and a can of coconut milk.I make in my rice cooker for 15 minutes.
- Remove the pork from the oven and let rest for a few minutes then remove to a cutting board a slice into 10-12 slices.
- To assemble: add a large scoop of rice to the pineapple bowl, 4-5 slices of pork, a couple scoops of steamed broccoli, and a side of Pineapple Mango Salsa.
- Drizzle the pork with Teriyaki sauce and enjoy!
