Most fruit makes pretty darned good salsa. The recipe is basic; the fruit variable. If, for example, you have a list of favorite fresh pineapple recipes, and if it’s not already there, add pineapple salsa!
- 2 cups diced fruit (pineapple, peaches, apricots, blueberries, mangoes… you get the drift)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (I use a little more, cuz I love the flavor of cilantro)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (I use more, but this is the minimum)
- 1 small red bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)
- 1 small red or sweet onion, finely chopped (1/4 cup)
- 1 small red chili, seeded and finely chopped (1/2 teaspoon)
- 1 cup diced fresh or canned tomatoes (optional, but I like a little tomato flavor)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Depending on the fruit, add honey or whatever sweetener you choose to cut the sour
Serve as an appetizer with corn chips or as a side with your favorite Mexican themed meal.
