Tropical Fruit Salsa

March 30, 2014 by Natalie

I’m a crazy salsa fanatic.  I’ve even been known to eat the stuff right from a spoon… it’s true, I like it that much.  Literally, salsa just means ‘sauce’ in Spanish, but we typically think of spicy chunky sauces with lots of lime and spice when referring to them.  I love all salsa varieties… from green tomatillo to roasted red pepper to tropical fruit goodness- it’s all delicious.  As it’s now officially spring, with fresh produce filling the markets and the sunshine peeking its way out, a fresh tropical salsa is the perfect way to add some refreshing spicy flair to many dishes.  Atop some grilled chicken, scooped into tacos and burritos, smothering salmon or your favorite white fish, or simply snacked on with a heap of salted chips, this salsa is the perfect blend of sweet, spicy, and refreshing.

I recently made this salsa to accompany some coconut-encrusted sea bass and coconut rice… it was so good!  That recipe is actually in my new ebook that just came out on March 28th!  Click HERE to get it 🙂

That’s it!  Serve alongside fish, tacos, chicken, or chips!

Refrigerate any extra in an air-tight container… it will stay fresh for up to three days

(though I doubt it will last that long) 😉
