This is such a great combination for a spring salad, since today is the first day of spring. I have always loved spiced peaches, so I thought I would try making spiced pineapple. The combination of the spiced pineapple with the blueberries and blue cheese is a winning trio. If you would like to make a main meal salad, grilled chicken would be a wonderful addition.
