Mango-Pineapple Salsa
Iโve been seeing mangoes and pineapple at the grocery store for weeks now, but I havenโt felt tempted to buy them until recently. Theyโre such bright, cheery fruits that remind me of sunshine, green grass and long summer days. The weather in Pittsburgh has been anything but until this weekend. After having 10 inches of snow on Wednesday, we celebrated the first elongated day of the year yesterday with 70-degree weather. Iโll take it! The nice weekend weather called for some fresh fruit. A couple of weeks ago, my Chief Culinary Consultant and I had a family dinner at his cousinโs house, and she had a mango salsa and chips for us to munch on before dinner. It was delicious! On Saturday, feeling inspired by the gorgeous weather, I loaded up on mangoes and pineapple at the grocery store and made my own!

I love how incredibly fresh-tasting this salsa isโฆ between the mango and pineapple, the bite from the red onion and jalapeรฑo, and the pop from lime juice and cilantro, itโs an amazing combination. Not only is it fabulous, but it takes mere minutes to make. If youโre a master with the chefโs knife, youโll have this thrown together in 10 minutes! We ate this with regular tortilla chips, although my CCCโs cousin served hers with lime-flavored tortilla chips, which were great, as well.
Iโm thrilled to have another salsa recipe to add to my current repertoire of restaurant-style and black bean salsa. Now that we seem to be turning the corner for summer, Iโm ready for some warm-weather recipes! Do you have a favorite salsa recipe? Feel free to share it below!

Awesome dish. I liked it so much. I will definitely try this dish. I have a question, can I make this dish with alphonso mangoes? As their taste is awesome.
Sure, I donโt see why not!
delicious โ added a little red pepper and used sweet onion as I didnโt have a red pepper.
Can mango be blended w/another fruit, and/or maybe sour cream to make dip or salad dressing? Yrs ago I made mango & cherries chutney, but never tried blending, am not sure how well mangoes keep consistency.ย
Iโve never tried to do this, so Iโm not sure!
We just moved to Hawaii not long ago and tried some amazing mango pineapple salsa at a local food truck rally (we paid $10 for a small container!!) So I was excited to try your recipe. It was even better!!! Two thumbs up!!! Thank you!
This recipe is delicious as-is. Another way I use it is to place all of the ingredients into a food processor, and pulse until lightly pureed. Then I pour the mixture over a nice white fish or grilled chicken breasts.
I make this every summer!
This looks Yum!
I made this tonight using your recipe! Absolutely wonderful! I deviated a little by adding an avocado and a red bell pepper.
Found this on foodgawkerโฆlooks amazing, going to create this with some tortilla chips tomorrow! Thanks for the recipe :-)
This would be delicious over some grilled tilapia or even chicken!
Iโm also holding out for some sunshine and warmth โ itโs snowing here in NY! What a beautiful burst of color! Wonderful post!
Love the combination of mango, pineapple and jalapenos! Sounds electric!
I would throw black beans in with this!! YUM!
