- 2 cups fresh pineapple chopped
- 1 large tomato chopped
- 1 habanero pepper minced

Chop your sweet pineapple, onions, tomatoes into small bite size pieces and place in a small bowl.
Wear gloves to handle the orange habanero chile pepper. Slice the pepper in half and remove seeds. Mince the habanero into tiny, small pieces. Adjust the level of heat by adding more or less Habanero. Add the minced habanero to the bowl with rest of homemade salsa
Add to the bowl lime juice, salt and pepper.
Mix to combine and serve at room temperature.
Don't have red onion? Use white onion instead
Don't want to use really hot peppers like Habanero? Use Jalapeno peppers or your choice of hot sauce for mild heat.
Don't have limes? Use lemon juice instead
Don't like chunky salsas? Use a food processor for a smooth homemade dip
Storage
Place any left over salsa in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for upto 3 days.
