I’m always a fan of a good restaurant style salsa (especially with a kick) but I also love mixing it up from time to time. And this delicious Fruit Salsa recipe is one of my favorite variations!

Made with a combination of fresh pineapple, mango, and strawberries, it’s perfectly sweet with a tropical flavor twist. It’s delicious served over chicken, fish, or shrimp tacos… and it’s EXTRA delicious with cinnamon chips!

what you’ll need for this recipe

Fruit – Fruit is the main ingredient in this recipe. I used a combination of fresh mango, strawberries, and pineapple, but you can feel free to use any types of fruit you enjoy. [See my ideas for “Recipe Variations” below!]

Lemons & limes – I used a combination of lemon juice and lime zest in the dressing. You can use either fresh or bottled lemon juice OR substitute lime juice instead.

Honey – I added a touch of honey to the lemon juice to balance out the tartness of the lemon. Feel free to substitute sugar, agave, or any sweetener you prefer.

Poppy seeds – I also added poppy seeds to the dressing, just for fun. Feel free to omit them if you prefer.
