Pineapple Mango Salsa

I have a pineapple and mango going bad with lots of lime what am I to make?  Salsa of course.

Carly happened to give me a great gift Pioneer Woman Cooks 

A Year of Holidays Cookbook.

I bought some salmon the other day so there's my answer.

I did have a few problems though.  I had no jalapenos, I had no cilantro.  Oh well, what do we in the country do when out of something?  We make do and we substitute.

I used celery leaves and a little bit of dried basil instead of cilantro.

The red onions from our Sam's Club are very hot so I added a little cayenne pepper..Hot enough without the jalapeno! I added a green bell pepper too.  Guess I turned it into my own make do recipe!

Below is Ree's Recipe

Ingredients

1 whole fresh pineapple peeled and diced

1 large mango diced

1/2 red onion finely diced

1 lime juiced

1 jalapeno sliced and chopped seed added or taken out
Cilantro Chopped

Sprinkle of salt

Dash of sugar (optional)

I added a chopped green bell pepper too (not called for in recipe)

Combine all ingredients and stir well

Serve within an hour

This is especially good with chicken or fish.
