- 1 whole pineapple
- 1 red bell pepper chopped small
- 3 mini cucumbers cubed
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes chopped small
- 1/2 red onion chopped
- 1 cup cilantro chopped
- 1 jalapeno
Dressing
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 lime juice

Slice the pineapple only about 1/4 of the way lengthwise, leaving a bigger half which can include the crown if you like for visual appeal when serving. Then removing all the pulp, using a pairing knife and spoon to scoop out all remaining pineapple chunks. You should end up with a deep pocket pineapple half (see image).
Cut all the pineapple from both halves into small cubes and add to a bowl along with remaining ingredients and toss.
Season pineapple salsa with lemon and lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. You're welcome to add a splash of pineapple juice. Top with extra cilantro and serve with your favorite chips.
