What is Pineapple Mango Salsa?

Pineapple mango salsa is basically a chunky collection of ripe mango, sweet pineapple, crunchy red onion, and fresh herbs. So basically, it’s tropical in terms of the classic tomato salsa-it’s just got bold frosty fruit flavors and a bit more punch.

In addiction, it is great with grilled chicken or fish tacos. Or just good enough as a dip. Juicy mango and pineapple provide some sweetness offset by the acidity from lime juice and the heat of jalapeño.
