Tips for Making the BEST Fruit Salsa

• Be sure to dice pineapple and mango into small pieces to make the Pineapple Salsa easier to scoop up with chips.
• To control the heat of this fruit salsa, be sure to remove seeds and ribs from jalapeno.
• Wear plastic gloves while chopping the jalapeno or wash your hands well after handling to protect your skin and eyes from the juice from the pepper.
• A pro tip to juicing limes is to microwave for 30 seconds, then roll on the counter. Use a juicer or a hand held kitchen mixer attachment to juice the lime.
• The salt is a must to bring out all the flavors in this pineapple mango salsa.
