    This pineapple salsa is perfect over grilled fish, chicken or as a dip with tortilla chip!

    If you haven't ever had a fruit salsa, you are in for a treat! It is so fresh tasting and delicious.

    When I was making this salsa, the kids kept asking, "Where are the tomatoes?" Most salsas do have tomatoes, but not this one! This salsa only has 5 ingredients - but no tomatoes!

    One of my favorite ways to eat this salsa is with grilled fish or chicken, but we've also served it with tacos. Sometimes I eat it by the spoonful!

    Go grab yourself a fresh pineapple and throw together this quick and delicious pineapple salsa.

        You can control the spiciness by adding as much jalapeno as you desire. Some people like it extra spicy!
