To make this Pineapple Salsa you’ll need:

• 2 cups peeled and cored pineapple rings (about 10 rings)
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 small red onion
• 1 jalapeno
• 2 tomatoes
• 1 clove garlic
• ¼ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp cumin

Tools you may find helpful:

• Sharp knife
• Food processor
• Grill

This recipe doesn’t include cilantro (coriander) which many people (including my chief recipe eater) dislike. But if you have it and you like it, throw a few snips in! And if you’re aiming for “Most Impressive Dish at the Neighborhood Get Together”, definitely serve this salsa in a pineapple boat. Simply cut the pineapple in half, gently cut out the edible fruit, then spoon in your salsa. As they say in Spanish, buen apetito!
