Pineapple used to be exotic and expensive, but now it's more common and cheaper. Either way, it's one of my favorite fruits. This recipe was developed by Mark Bittman (the Minimalist) and was published in the New York Times.

I looked for a pineapple salsa recipe after having a delicious salsa at a local South American fusion cafe. By mixing and matching between Option 2 and Option 3, I was able to get very close. My family preferred it when I prepared it with raw fresh pineapple instead of grilled because it maintained a firmer texture and less carmely sweetness.
-
I tried option one and just used canned crushed pineapple. It was surprisingly tasty. I thought it had good flavor (not WOW, but good). I think it's nice for those who prefer sweet over spicy...

Very good! Delicious lunch along with ham sandwiches. Option 3 was perfect. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT4 the Flying Dutchess'.
