This salsa is one of my favorite go-to salsas. It's always requested by my husband, and I often use it as a topping for my salmon with mango salsa recipe!

- Two Salsas in One: You can make this salsa chunky, like a pico de gallo, or blend it in a food processor to achieve a more chunky salsa.
What You Need for This Recipe
- Pineapple- I use fresh but canned tidbits works too.
- Mango- You want the mangos to give a little when squeezed but not be mushy.
- Peppers- I like to use a jalapeno and red bell pepper.
- Onion- White or Yellow works great.
- Lime- zested and juiced!
- Seasoning- Cumin, Garlic Powder, Salt
How to Make Pineapple Mango Salsa:
- Step 1: Cut up the pineapple, mango (peel both), onion, cilantro, jalapeno, and red bell pepper.
- Step 2: At this point, either stir together along with the seasonings or throw everything, including the seasoning, in a food processor, and blend for a few seconds at a time, until your desired consistency is reached.
