Steps:
- Remove top and skin from pineapple. Cut lengthwise into quarters; remove core. Chop three quarters of pineapple into large chunks; process in a food processor until smooth. Strain through a sieve or colander into a small saucepan. Discard solids.
- Add vanilla bean, sugar, and ginger to the pan, and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until slightly thickened, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, dice remaining quarter of pineapple, and place in a small bowl. Cut mangoes in half lengthwise, angling the knife slightly to cut around the elongated pit. Cut out and discard pit. Peel mangoes, and discard the peel. Cut mangoes into bite-size pieces, and divide among four plates.
- Remove pineapple sauce from heat. Scrape the seeds from vanilla bean, stir seeds into sauce, and discard the pod. Combine the warm sauce with the diced pineapple, and spoon sauce over each plate of sliced mango. Sprinkle with crystallized ginger, and serve.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees with two racks centered. In a medium bowl, combine the vanilla extract, maple syrup, ginger, and lemon juice.
- Spray two 12-by-14-inch roasting or jelly-roll pans with cooking spray. Cut one pineapple into 1-inch rounds, and arrange in one roasting pan. Cut second pineapple into 1/2-inch rounds, and arrange in the other pan. Divide mango halves evenly between pans. Brush all fruit lightly with maple glaze. Roast fruit until it starts to brown slightly, 25 to 40 minutes; timing will vary with juiciness of pineapple. Use a spatula to turn fruit over, and brush with glaze again. Cook 10 minutes more. Divide banana pieces evenly between pans, brush with glaze, and cook until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Pour the remaining glaze into a small nonstick skillet. Place the skillet over medium heat, and reduce the liquid until it is thick, 4 to 6 minutes.
- To serve, arrange 1-inch pieces of pineapple on six plates. Top with half a mango. Arrange 1/2-inch pineapple slices over mango. Arrange banana pieces around edge of plate. Pour a little glaze over each plate.

Tips:
- Choose ripe and fragrant fruits: For the best flavor, select ripe pineapple, honeydew melon, and mango. Look for fruits that are heavy for their size and have a sweet aroma.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like mint, basil, and cilantro add a burst of flavor and aroma to the salad. Use a variety of herbs to create a complex and interesting flavor profile.
- Don't overdress the salad: A light dressing is all that's needed to enhance the natural flavors of the fruits and herbs. Use a simple vinaigrette or drizzle of honey or agave syrup.
- Serve immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh. The fruits and herbs will start to wilt if they sit for too long.
