Pineapple Salsa with Tomatoes

The combination of pineapple and tomatoes in salsa is so good that it’s part of The Taco Tuesday Cookbook! Think of it like Pico de Gallo with bits of juicy sweet pineapple mixed in. It’s super quick to make and tastes even better the next day because this recipe yields a lot. Epic.

Ingredients

I prefer fresh pineapple, but in a hurry, use pre-sliced or frozen. I don't recommend using canned pineapple. You’ll also need tomatoes (any variety, as long as they’re fresh), red onion, jalapeño, garlic, lime juice, cilantro, and a pinch of salt to bring out the sweetness in the pineapple and tomato.

How to Make Pineapple Salsa

First, dice the pineapple, tomatoes, onions, jalapeño, cilantro, and garlic, as I’ll show you in the video below. Add them to a large bowl and squeeze in fresh lime juice, then season with a little salt. Toss to combine, grab your tortilla chips, and serve.

How to Make it Spicier

If you like your salsas on the spicy side, don’t leave out the jalapeño, and make sure to toss in a few of the seeds. The seeds add a lot of heat.

Can You Freeze Pineapple Salsa?

Freezing pineapple salsa will make the tomatoes and onions unpleasantly mushy. Salsa is best when served fresh. If you have leftovers, refrigerate them in an airtight container or bowl covered with plastic wrap. It will stay good for up to 5 days and make a great snack or toppings for salads and wraps.

What to Serve Pineapple Salsa with?

Some delicious ways to enjoy this pineapple salsa are as a topping for shredded pork tacos, coconut crusted baked fish tacos, curried cauliflower tacos, over pan-seared chicken, with chips, or over a salad.
