Five-a-day portion size: Pineapple
Pineapple is another one which can be confusing when it comes to portion size. The whole fruit rule that applies to bananas and apples thankfully isn't the same here because munching your way through a whole pineapple would take quite some time. The good news is that you can get a portion of fruit in just one slice of pineapple so a whole fruit will go a long way to bumping up your family's daily five-a-day count. Try out these suggestions for easy meals you can make with pineapple at home:
