Description

A delightful fusion of fresh strawberries and pineapple, combined with zesty lime juice and a hint of jalapeño heat, creating a versatile salsa that’s perfect for chips, grilled meats, or as a topping for tacos.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
  • 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
  • 1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, minced (optional, adjust to taste)
  • 1/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the diced pineapple, strawberries, tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño (if using), and cilantro.
  2. Add the lime juice and salt, stirring gently to mix all ingredients.
  3. Allow the salsa to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
  4. Serve chilled or at room temperature with tortilla chips, grilled chicken, fish, or as a topping for tacos.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, include the seeds and ribs of the jalapeño.
  • This salsa can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours; however, it’s best enjoyed fresh to maintain the crispness of the fruits.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding a teaspoon of honey or agave syrup if the fruits are not sweet enough.
