Fresh Pineapple Salsa
A little sweet, a little spicy, this fresh pineapple salsa recipe is a must for both taco night and parties! Easy to make with only six ingredients. Naturally vegan and gluten-free.
Ingredients
- 3 cups finely chopped fresh pineapple
- 3/4 cup finely chopped bell pepper
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
- 1/4 cup finely diced red onion
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
- 1 lime, zest and juice (about 2 tablespoons juice)
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place all ingredients into a medium bowl and toss together. Season to taste with salt.
Notes
The key to success for this recipe is to ensure all the items are finely chopped. That allows you to enjoy some of the sweet pineapple, spicy jalapeno, fresh cilantro, and onion all in one bite.
This pineapple salsa will keep for 1-2 days in the fridge.
As most of the flavor for this salsa comes from the pineapple, I highly recommend only using a ripe pineapple. If you can find a honeyglow or extra sweet pineapple (specifically bred for sweetness), it makes a difference!
