Pineapple Salsa Recipe

This pineapple salsa recipe has a delicious combination of sweet and spicy. It can be served with grilled chicken or fish or as an appetizer with chips.

I remember when I first heard about fruit salsa, I wondered why anyone would want to put fruit in their salsa (even though tomatoes are technically a fruit).

And then I tried it and I realized that I love it as much as I love fruit in my salads like a Raspberry Parmesan Chicken Salad or a Citrus Salad.

When making this recipe, I remembered a fruit salad in a pineapple bowl from my friend Becky over at The Cookie Rookie and I knew that this salsa would look gorgeous in a pineapple bowl as well.

Ingredients:

  • Whole pineapple, (to use as the bowl)
  • 1 cup diced pineapple
  • 1 cup diced bell peppers, (any combination of red, orange, yellow or green peppers)
  • 1 cup diced Roma tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup minced red onion
  • 4 tbsp lime juice, (about 2 limes or use bottled lime juice)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • Optional: 1 tbsp diced jalapenos

Instruction:

  1. To make the pineapple bowl, cut about 1/3 of the pineapple off, leaving the stem attached to the larger piece of the pineapple. Make a cut around the outer edge of the pineapple fruit and make cuts across the middle too. Use a metal spoon to loosen and scoop out the pineapple chunks. Pour the extra juice out of the pineapple bowl so that it is empty.
  2. Dice enough of the pineapple chunks to make one cup of diced pineapple to be used for the salsa and save the rest for another use.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together diced pineapple, diced tomatoes, diced peppers, minced onions, chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper.
  4. Transfer the salsa to the pineapple bowl for serving.
  5. Store in the fridge.
