Pineapple Salsa – No Tomato
I’ve always said ‘keep that fruit away from my salsa and guac!’ I was wrong. The sweetness of the fruit blended with savory and salty is perfection.
I can’t bring myself to mix tomato and pineapple so this Pineapple Salsa Recipe is just a fresh blend of pineapple, peppers, cilantro, onions and lime.
What To Serve With Pineapple Salsa
It is great served as a dip or used as a topping for fish or tacos. . . or fish tacos!
Here are some meals that would only be made better with this salsa: CHILI LIME SALMON, EASY SHRIMP TACOS, SHEET PAN CHICKEN FAJITAS or PORK FAJITA BOWLS.
How Do You Pick A Good Pineapple
I always make sure the pineapples look vibrant and fresh. You want the pineapple to have the tiniest bit of give when you squeeze and it should have yellow on it, bright light yellow not orange-yellow. It should be lightly fragrant when you smell it.
Here is a detailed tutorial on How To Tell If A Pineapple Is Ripe.

Hi Nicole,
I’ve loved your recipes so far. I tried to sign up for the “Top 10 recipes” but it did not allow me to enter my email. Is that because I am already a “member” of your fan club? Anyway, if it’s too late, too bad, but I will still be a fan and copy many of the emails you send me. Thank you Sue Jirkovsky
