Pineapple Mango Salsa Recipe

Ingredients
- 1 Pineapple cut up (You will only use 2 cups; reserve the rest for something else)
- 1 Mango cut up
- 1 tsp. Garlic, Pepper, Sea Salt (start with 1/2 tsp. and add more to your taste preference)
- 1/4 + 1/3 cup purple onion (I added more, pick your preference. The Total was equal to .58 cup)
- 1 Lime (use a fresh lime to squeeze into the salsa or bottled RealLime juice)
- 1/2 cup of cilantro
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
Recipe Notes: If you omit the mango (because you don’t like it or have it), it still makes a delicious Pineapple Salsa! If you don’t like jalapeno, you can omit it. But, by seeding, it typically makes jalapenos less spicy. Gives you that perfect combo of sweet and spicy. In a hurry? Scroll down to print the recipe.

Instructions

How To Make Pineapple Mango Salsa

- Finely chop half a cup of cilantro.

Helpful kitchen tools to cut down the prep time!
- A Food Chopper like this cuts the time down for prep. I wouldn’t use it for the pineapple or mango. It’s great for firm vegetables and fruits.
- Pineapple Corer and Slicer, like this, will make it easier.
- Mango Slicer is another helpful kitchen tool.
