Pineapple Jalapeno Salsa
This kicked up pineapple jalapeno salsa is a real treat. And – bonus! – it’s a Weight Watchers zero point snack on the Freestlye and Flex plans.
Ingredients
- 1 Small Purple Onion
- 1-2 Limes
- 3-4 Roma Tomatoes
- 1 Small Orange Pepper
- 1 Jalapeno
- Fresh Cilantro
- 1 tsp. Salt
- ½ tsp. Cumin
Instructions
- Cut the pineapple down the center lengthwise so the stem is also cut down the center. Do this carefully so the stems stay attached to each half.
- Cut a grid pattern of squares into each pineapple half making sure not to cut through the rind. I left about an inch of pineapple around the edge of the rind. Dig out the pineapple chunks and chop them into very small chunks. Put them into a large bowl.
- Chop the tomatoes, onion, orange pepper, and jalapeno pepper into small pieces. Put those in the bowl with the pineapple.
- Chop a small bunch of cilantro and put that in the bowl along with the salt and the cumin.
- Gently mix everything together and squeeze the juice of one or both the limes over the salsa and mix again.
- Add salsa to the hollowed-out pineapple halves, then serve with tortilla chips.
Notes
- Uniform chopping makes the salsa look beautiful and ensures balanced bites.
- For less heat, remove the jalapeno seeds before chopping.
- Taste and adjust lime juice and salt right before serving for maximum freshness.
