Long weekends are magnets for overindulging on drinks, snacks and desserts. Be kind to your health and make conscious substations to control caloric intake. With Canada Day Celebrations already underway it can be easy to lose sight of our health goals amongst the parties and get togethers. You can still enjoy a sweet treat to finish off a meal, if you are making smart choices.

Grilled pineapple has such a delicious flavour as the heat from the grill sears the naturally occurring sugar in pineapple to create a caramelized layer around the outside.

Any leftovers are great for topping a salad or pair with a chicken breast and leftover veggies as a quick and easy work lunch.
