Are cherries still around? I hope so. I made this salsa last month at the height of cherry season, but I think you can still easily find cherries in the supermarket. Here’s a salsa with a sweet accent but one that’s also got a sassy attitude from the bits of jalapeno mixed throughout. Try this over a grilled piece of salmon, chicken, or pork or serve with tortilla chips for a little something out of the ordinary.
Pineapple-Cherry Salsa
(makes about 4 cups)
3 cups chopped pineapple
1 cup pitted cherries, chopped
1 jalapeno, minced
1/4 c. minced cilantro
1/4 c. bell pepper – red, orange, yellow or green
1/4 c. cup minced onion
juice of 1 large lime
Mix everything together in a bowl (the pineapple will darken) and serve.

Sweet cherries and a little heat - is that summer or what? And cherries are still around in MN. I think I will just have a bowl of it. Who needs meat or tortilla chips?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a delicious salsa. Cherries are still available here so I'm in luck
