Hey, spicy squad! 🌞 I’m excited to share this amazing salsa recipe, which is inspired by my absolute favorite salsa - Taco Boy’s seasonal pineapple salsa. Because of its seasonal availability, I had to scour the memories of my tastebuds to recall every small flavor, and to be honest, the magic of their pineapple salsa is in its simplicity. Simple things done right can indeed soothe the soul.
My Simply Fire Pineapple Salsa is exactly that - a simple, amazing and spicy, pineapple-forward salsa that anyone can make! This vibrant and refreshing salsa combines the sweet flavor of fresh pineapple with the tangy tart of lime, the crunch and umami of red onion, and the floral heat of jalapeños. Perfect for pairing with chips, topping grilled fish, or adding to your tacos. Let’s dive into this tropical flavor fiesta! 🍍🌶️
