Fruit Salsa Ingredients

Sliced Pineapple For Roasting

Fresh Pineapples - use fresh pineapple because canned and frozen pineapples texture is to watery in this recipe.

Jalapeño - good contrast to the sweetness of the roasted pineapples.

Mint - pairs perfectly with the pineapples and gives it a refreshing pop

Lime

Serving Suggestions For Pineapple Salsa

  • Topping for grilled tofu
  • Great appetizers with chips and guacamole
  • For a twist as a topping for vanilla ice cream
  • With sliced avocados
  • Great with tacos

Can You Make Ahead; How Long Will It Keep?

Yes, can make a day ahead. Store in a sealed container. The salsa will last about a week but is best eaten within a day or two. After that its starts to get soggy from all of the pineapple juice.

Instructions

Roasting Pineapple 

  • Preheat over to 425 degree
  • Cut off top and bottom of pineapple. Then cut off remaining pineapple peel on sides
  • Cut pineapple in half and then cut each side into slices for roasting
  • Place on parchment lined baking sheet
  • Roast for 20 minutes 
  • Dice roasted pineapple slices and place in mixing bowl

Prepping Pineapple Salsa

  • Finely chop the cilantro, onions, bell peppers, mint and jalapeno and place in mixing bowl with diced pineapple 
  • Add juice from lime to bowl
  • Mix all the ingredients together 
  • Depending on the ripeness of your pineapple. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary
  • Serve over tofu, with tortilla chips or topping on your taco

Storage

Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
