Easy Pineapple Salsa

I’ve been making this pineapple salsa to go with our taco and fajita nights for quite some time now. It always ends up being the star of the show when guests come over! I can guarantee they’ll be leaving with the recipe by the end of the night, so, what am I waiting for? It’s time for you to have the recipe as well! I’ve always been sweet and savory’s number one fan. This contrast of flavor is the pinnacle of great cooking in my mind! I’ll cook up some of these tender pork carnitas, whip up my pineapple salsa, and that’s all I need. So simple, so delicious; nothing can beat it. With only 5 ingredients required, this pineapple salsa is a must on a taco night! Piled high into a flour tortilla, and maybe a few tortilla chips on the plate to catch all the goodness that falls down, there you have it! My dream meal.

Ingredient Notes

Pineapple – A fresh pineapple, core removed, or drained canned pineapple. You can also use canned pineapple, but nothing beats a fresh pineapple. Red onion – If you want a more mild onion flavor, white or green onion will be great. Cilantro – Freshly chopped. Use parsley if you don’t like cilantro. Pomegranate seeds – My secret ingredient! If you can’t find cups of pre-seeded pomegranate, check below to see my easy method. Lime juice – Freshly squeezed. Salt & pepper – Season to taste. Freshly cracked pepper will be best!

Leftovers

Transfer leftover pineapple salsa to an airtight container and store in the fridge for 1-2 days. Keep in mind some moisture will pull from the pineapple and pool in the container, it won’t look as fresh, but it will still taste delicious.

Freezing

I don’t recommend freezing your pineapple salsa. Once frozen and thawed, it will become very watery and the pineapple pieces will soften.
