Why Should I Make This Pineapple Mango Salsa?
- Easy. This Mango Pineapple Salsa recipe is such a versatile and easy salsa recipe. There's no cooking required and you can make it ahead of time. Just leave it to marinate in the refrigerator until needed.
- Quick. It will take you less than 30 minutes to chop all the ingredients up and dump everything in a bowl.
- Fresh. Homemade salsa recipes are my favorite. You can taste the freshness of the ingredients and you just can't buy that in a pre-packaged bottle at a grocery store.
- Flavor. Some fresh mango and pineapple doused with lime juice, that sweet and tart flavor that you get partnered with the spice of jalapeno peppers, and the bite from the red onion? I am salivating just thinking about it.
How To Make Pineapple Mango Salsa

- Mix. Combine everything in a bowl and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Serve.
What Can I Do With Leftover Pineapple Salsa?
- Eat it with Chips - tortilla chips work best!
- Garnish Grilled Meat - Chicken and Fish pair very well with this Pineapple Salsa with Mango! My favorites with this recipe are grilled tilapia or orange roughy. Both are mild and don't taste fishy. The freshness from the fruits and vegetables in the salsa would complement the fish. It would be so gorgeous served alongside!
- Grab a Spoon! - I'll admit I've sat and eaten this Pineapple Salsa all by itself with just a spoon - it's that good!
Could I Also Make a Pineapple Cucumber Salsa?
Yes! To do this, just omit the mango, and substitute it with the cucumber for a delicious Pineapple Cucumber Salsa!
Tips and Tricks For Making Pineapple Mango Salsa
- Adjust. Taste, and adjust as needed since fruit can vary in its level of tartness and sweetness.
- Sugar. To reduce the sugar in this recipe, cut down on the mango and pineapple, and add more cucumber.
- Jicama. You can also add diced jicama in this recipe.
- Additions. Adding corn and black beans to this recipe makes it a great, hearty salad. If you make it ahead of time, the flavors will intensify overnight.
- Chile. Be sure to use Mexican chile powder, not cayenne pepper.
- Vegan. Since there is no mayonnaise in this recipe, not only is it vegan, but it is also fantastic for summer picnics where food needs to be able to stand the heat without refrigeration.
- Cilantro. If you absolutely are on Team No Cilantro, then you can substitute fresh parsley instead. But I recommend using a fresh herb to highlight this salsa recipe and give it that fresh bite. It really pulls this Pineapple Salsa together.
How Long Does Pineapple Salsa Last In The Fridge?
Making this Pineapple Salsa ahead allows for all of the amazing flavors time to meld. Even using fresh ingredients, this flavor-packed salsa lasts up to five days without sacrificing taste or texture.

What can I use if I don’t have Mexican Chile powder? Would chipotle chili powder work?

Hmm I don’t know to be honest. I’d start with very little of it at first. It does tend to be a bit spicier. But I would think the smoky taste of that would be quite nice

Thank you. I was making the salad version, so added 1 tsp of chipotle chili powder, knowing that the black beans and corn would also help keep the spiciness manageable. I think I added too much corn and beans 1 cup and 1 can respectively) so added a little more fruit. It was awesome! Thank you. I now also have a vegan recipe for when I have my friend over.
