In addition to cream cheese, I recommend adding mayonnaise, which is essential because it adds depth of flavour and savouriness. I used a homemade mayonnaise, which is not difficult to make, being higher quality and much healthier than the one I bought. To make a good mayonnaise, all you need is two fresh egg yolks, sunflower oil, lemon juice and mustard, all mixed together to form a creamy, velvety composition. Here you can find the complete recipe and the method of preparing homemade mayonnaise. If you use fresh pineapple, make sure it is ripe and sweet. When using canned pineapple, try to remove excess juice, squeezing them lightly, otherwise the salad will become watery


This exotic chicken and pineapple salad recipe is very easy to prepare, requiring only three steps.
