To make pineapple pico de gallo, you can find the ingredients at various places, including:

1. Grocery Stores: Your local grocery store is likely to have all the ingredients you need. Head to the produce section to find fresh pineapples, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and limes. You can also check the aisle with spices and condiments for salt, pepper, and any additional seasonings you might want to add.
2. Farmers’ Markets: If you prefer to support local growers and enjoy the freshest produce available, farmers’ markets are a great option. These markets often have a wide selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, including pineapples, tomatoes, onions, and cilantro. Plus, you can directly interact with the farmers and ask for their recommendations or tips on selecting the best ingredients.
3. Specialty Stores: Depending on your location, you might have specialty stores that focus on Mexican or tropical ingredients. These stores often carry a variety of exotic fruits and vegetables, including pineapples. Additionally, they may have a wider range of chili peppers or unique spices that can further enhance the flavors of your pineapple pico de gallo.
4. Online Retailers: If you have trouble finding certain ingredients locally or prefer the convenience of online shopping, you can explore online grocery retailers. Many of them offer a vast selection of fresh produce and pantry staples that can be delivered straight to your doorstep.

Remember to choose ripe and fresh ingredients to ensure the best flavor and texture for your pineapple pico de gallo. With a little bit of ingredient sourcing, you’ll be well on your way to creating a delightful tropical salsa in the comfort of your own kitchen.

WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?

The ingredients to make this pineapple pico de gallo are:

• Pineapple
• Tomato
• Jalapeno
• Red Onion
• Lime Juice
• Cilantro
• Salt & Pepper (to taste)

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

The equipment you need to make this delicious fresh pineapple pico is a citrus juicer for the limes, glass bowls to mix everything up, a cutting board as you’ll need to do some serious produce dicing, and a good knife! Depending on if you’ll be serving this to guests or not, you can also place your pineapple pico in a nice chip and dip bowl!

CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING OUT?

Of course, you can substitute or add anything you’d like! I often make dishes like this because of the crunchy and fresh vegetables and fruits. I love enjoy fresh foods as often as I can like! Two of my favorite recipes on the blog and that I make personally often are Shrimp Ceviche and Sweet Chunky Mango Guacamole!

With this recipe, you can add in ANY other fruits or veggies you’d like! Some great produce to add would be avocado, mango, cucumbers, and bell peppers. You can also make this into a ceviche dish and soak some diced raw shrimp or fish in citrus for a few hours and add it it! YUM

WHAT DOES PINEAPPLE PICO DE GALLO TASTE LIKE?

Pineapple pico de gallo has a unique and delicious flavor profile that combines the sweetness of pineapple with the tanginess of lime and the freshness of other traditional pico de gallo ingredients. Here’s a breakdown of the flavors you can expect:

1. Sweetness: The pineapple brings a natural sweetness to the salsa. It adds a pleasant tropical flavor that contrasts with the savory elements of the dish.
2. Tanginess: Lime juice is typically used to provide a tangy and citrusy note. It adds a refreshing zing that balances out the sweetness of the pineapple.
3. Freshness: Traditional pico de gallo ingredients like tomatoes, onions, and cilantro contribute to the salsa’s overall freshness. The tomatoes provide a slight acidity and juiciness, while the onions offer a sharp and crisp flavor. The cilantro adds a herbaceous and aromatic element.
4. Spiciness (optional): Depending on personal preference, you can add diced jalapeños or other chili peppers to add a mild to moderate spiciness to your pineapple pico de gallo. The spiciness complements the sweet and tangy flavors, adding a subtle kick.

Overall, pineapple pico de gallo offers a delightful combination of sweet, tangy, and fresh flavors. The contrast between the tropical sweetness of pineapple and the traditional pico de gallo ingredients creates a salsa that is both refreshing and unique. It’s a perfect accompaniment to grilled meats, fish tacos, or as a dip with tortilla chips.

HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?

Since the fresh fruits and veggies in this dish contain a lot of water/juices, it’s best to only make, serve and eat this pineapple pico de gallo fresh. You can keep it in the fridge for one evening to enjoy for lunch the following day but I would advise that it doesn’t stay in the fridge longer than that. The vegetables will turn soggy fairly quickly and all the juices from the tomatoes and pineapples will come out.

INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS RECIPE?

Nothing specific but fresh foods are my favorite things to eat EVER. I seriously go through a phase where all I want to eat is fresh pico de gallo, salsa, guacamole, or ceviche! I thought about pineapple pico de gallo and thought it would be super refreshing with some crunchy tomatoes, jalapenos, red onions, and sweet pineapples, and boy, was I right!

ANY OTHER NOTES?

One note that I want to make is that the juices come out from the produce fairly quickly as salt is added so if you’re wanting to minimize the juice, you may want to strain it and leave the tomato seeds out!

Whether you’re hosting a summer gathering or simply craving a burst of fruity goodness, pineapple pico de gallo is sure to impress and satisfy. Thank you for reading this recipe, enjoy!

Lynn
