Variations and Recipe Ideas:
Cooking Tip
Fresh Pineapple
Substitute canned pineapple chunks for the fresh, when fresh is not readily available. Drain off the sweet packing syrup.
Cooking Tip
Fresh Lime Juice
Taste the lime juice before adding. Too much lime juice can overwhelm the other ingredients and make the salsa bitter.
Cooking Tip
Jalapeño Chili Pepper
Subtract minced jalapeno for milder salsa. Substitute serrano chilies for jalapeño chilies for hotter salsa.
