Notes
- Try to keep the pieces of pineapple, mango, and bell pepper similar in size.
- I cut the chunks of frozen fruit into small pieces while they are still frozen because I think it's easier. Then I let the small pieces of fruit finish defrosting before adding them in with the rest of the ingredients.
- Adding too much salt will ruin the flavor completely.
- This is a very sweet salsa. If you prefer more savory salsas, you might want to stick to more traditional tomato-based salsa recipes.
- Fresh mango and fresh pineapple can be used instead of frozen, it will just take longer to peel and cut the fruit into small pieces.
- Cherry tomatoes (quartered) can be used in place of red bell pepper.
- If your kids are adventurous eaters and don't mind bold flavors, consider adding small pieces of red onion and / or jalapeño to the salsa.
- For even more of a tropical flavor, sprinkle a small amount of Tajin in with the lime juice and salt.
- If your kids prefer salsa to have a smooth texture, simply put the salsa in a food processor and blend to get a smooth consistency.
