Barley Free Gluten Free Pineapple Cucumber Salsa
Bright, juicy, and just a little fiery, this fresh salsa is the kind of thing you'll want to put on absolutely everything. Sweet pineapple and cool cucumber make a surprisingly perfect pair, balanced out by the heat of jalapeño, the zip of fresh lime juice, and a handful of fragrant cilantro. Every single ingredient here is naturally grain-free, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden grain-based additives sneaking into your bowl. A short rest on the counter is all it takes for the flavors to meld and the juices to pool into a gorgeous, ready-to-scoop sauce. Serve it alongside grilled fish or chicken, pile it onto tacos, or just go in with a chip — it works every single time. The optional pinch of cumin adds a subtle earthy warmth that ties the whole thing together beautifully if you're feeling it.
