¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

In a medium serving bowl, combine the pineapple, bell pepper, onion, cilantro, and jalapeño. Add the lime juice and salt, and stir to combine.
02 -
Season to taste with additional lime juice for more zing or salt for more overall flavor if necessary.

For best flavor, let the salsa rest for 10 minutes or longer before serving. Serve fresh, or store chilled for up to 4 days.
# Notes:
01 -
The salsa is best served fresh but can also be chilled for up to 4 days for later use.

For a milder spice level, use half of the jalapeño, ensuring ribs and seeds are removed. For a spicier option, add up to two peppers.

Pineapple alternatives include diced mango, strawberries, cucumber, melon, or tomatoes. The bell pepper can be optional in these variations.
