Beef Free Gluten Free Pineapple Cucumber Salsa
Bright, juicy, and just a little bit spicy, this pineapple cucumber 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 fresh jalapeño and a generous squeeze of lime. Red onion and cilantro round out the flavors, giving every bite that fresh, vibrant punch you'd expect from a great restaurant-style salsa. Every single ingredient here is naturally plant-based and free from any meat or animal protein, so it comes together without any substitutions or workarounds needed. A short rest on the counter is all it takes for the juices to meld and the flavors to really bloom — no cooking required. Serve it alongside grilled fish or chicken, pile it onto tacos, scoop it up with tortilla chips, or spoon it over a grain bowl for an instant upgrade.
