Breakfast for dinner is my thing and when it comes to tacos I don’t hold back.

Have you seen the Black Bean & Queso Breakfast Tacos or Steak and Egg Tacos– oh. my. goodness! Steak and veggies in a corn tortilla and topped with a fried egg So. Good.

But these Sausage & Pineapple Salsa tacos are in a league of their own. Contrary to my other breakfast tacos recipes, this one doesn’t have eggs but instead brings the breakfast sausage to center stage. I love the smoky, spicy sausage paired with fresh and tangy pineapple salsa.

First, you start with classic pico de gallo, add chopped pineapple and ta-da! You have Pineapple salsa ready for tacos, salads, wraps, and anything else you can think to eat it with.

I recommend making it up to 2 days beforehand to cut back on kitchen time come Taco Tuesday. On nights like this, it’s time to sit back and enjoy time with family, friends, and tacos.
