Legume Free Pineapple Salsa
Sweet, tangy, and impossibly fresh, this pineapple salsa is the kind of condiment that makes everything it touches taste like summer. Juicy diced pineapple gets tossed with crisp cucumber, sharp red onion, bright cilantro, and a hit of freshly grated ginger for a combination that's layered and lively without being complicated. A squeeze of lime and a splash of apple cider vinegar tie it all together with just the right amount of acidity. The short rest time is the secret — letting the pineapple release its natural juices turns this into a saucy, spoonable topping rather than just a pile of chopped fruit. Store-bought salsas often sneak in unexpected ingredients, so making your own means you know exactly what's in the bowl. Serve it straight away for maximum brightness, or let it chill in the fridge and watch the flavors deepen even further.
