I was making Caribbean Jerk Chicken with rice and needed a quick vegetable side dish from the vegetables I had available. The slight sweetness of the pineapple went great with the green beans, and the dish was the perfect compliment to the meal. I think if the green beans were to "marinate" a little longer in the pineapple juice before serving, it would be even better. My husband really liked it, and he is quite the picky eater.
