Servings: 6 people
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
- 4 slices fresh pineapple rings
- 2 cups chopped tomatoes
- 3/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup diced white onion
- 3 Tablespoons lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Set your oven to "broil" and move the oven rack to the top ring of the oven.
- Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place pineapple rings onto the pan. Cover the tops of the pineapple rings with 2 teaspoons of maple syrup. Broil them for 5-7 minutes, until grilled on top. (Check the pineapple often because the speed at which they grill depends on the oven). Remove from the oven and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add 2 cups chopped tomatoes, 3/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper, 1/2 cup diced white onion, 3 Tablespoons lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, and 1 teaspoon paprika. Mix well.
- Cut the pineapple into chunks and add to the salsa. Mix and then serve.
- This recipe makes 3 cups of salsa.
Notes
- Instead of red bell pepper, you can use green bell pepper.
- You can add jalapeno pepper to make things more spicy.
- You can add cilantro if you like that flavor.
- You can use fresh tomatoes instead of canned.
