Grilled Pineapple Salsa

Sharing is caring!

I made this amazing grilled pineapple salsa to serve with pork tenderloin over the weekend.  It is good, and such an easy recipe.  Grilling the ingredients adds a great smokey depth to the salsa.  I got the idea from a grilled peach salsa I made last year.

This salsa recipe would be a great addition to serve with pork or even chicken.  Summer food!  I really enjoyed how the ingredients slightly caramelized before adding the spicy punch of smokey jalapenos.   is a great addition.

If you have not tried grilling fruit, give it a whirl this summer.  You will be pleasantly suprirsed!
