Fresh Pineapple Salsa

The sun is shining and it’s (finally!) starting to warm up. Fresh food, friends, family, and good times are in the future. This fresh pineapple salsa is full of fresh fruit and veggies to make it the perfect dip or topping. Pineapple, red peppers, onion, jalapenos, cilantro, and lime juice are all you need for this delicious dish. If you’re a fan of dips like me, try this Quick and Easy Guacamole Recipe or this Pico De Galo Salsa for dipping tortilla chips in or topping meals.

How to Cut a Pineapple

The hardest part of this recipe is simply cutting the pineapple. The hard outer shell can be tough to attack but it’s simple once you get down to it. The easiest way I’ve found is to cut the top and bottom off. Then thinly slice the sides. You can go back and cut out the ‘eyes’ as well to make sure you’re only getting juicy pineapple.

Apparently, I need to focus on my phone camera skills but if you are in the market for an easy way to take selfies or food pics this Ring Light is your go-to. It’s cheap, easy to use, and provides just the right amount of light to brighten up your pictures.

Okay, now back to the recipe. I really like this recipe because it has a hint of sweetness from the pineapple but also that saltier taste you get from regular salsa. The lime juice helps keep the fruit and veggies fresh and also adds a touch of nice flavor. Just look at these colors, you can almost taste the flavor from here!

I used this fresh pineapple salsa on blackened mahi-mahi (recipe to come!) and it was amazing! I used the leftovers to eat as a snack with some tortilla chips. Honestly, it’s so good, you could eat it by the spoonful.
