Ingredients
- 1 whole pineapple. Peeled cored and diced.
- 1 red onion diced
- ½ a jalapeno seeded and diced
- 1 cup cilantro chopped
- ½ teaspoon salt
- juice of 1 lime
Instructions
- Start by dicing the fresh pineapple into small pieces. Ensure that the pieces are small and uniform for the best texture!
- On a cutting board, finely chop the red onion and cilantro. If you prefer a milder pico de gallo, remove the seeds from the jalapeño before mincing.
- In a large bowl, combine the pineapple,red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro. Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and stir well.

- For the best flavor, let the pico de gallo sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Notes
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the taste. Fresh pineapple are key to achieving that perfect balance of sweetness and acidity.
- Adjust the Heat: If you like it spicy, leave the seeds in the jalapeño or add a second one. For a milder version, use less or remove the seeds entirely.
- Experiment with Add-Ins: Feel free to add other fruits like mango or avocado for a unique twist. A dash of cumin or a pinch of chili powder can also add an extra layer of flavor.
