Tomatillo and Mango-Pineapple Salsa is a fresh and vibrant condiment that combines the tartness of tomatillos with the sweetness of mango and pineapple. This salsa pairs wonderfully with tortilla chips, grilled meats, or as a topping for tacos and burritos. Here's a simple recipe for making this refreshing salsa.

Ingredients:

• 1 pound tomatillos, husked, washed, and diced
• 1 large ripe mango, peeled and diced
• 1 cup diced pineapple (fresh or canned)
• 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 jalapeño or serrano pepper, seeded and finely chopped (optional, for heat)
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• Salt, to taste

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Tomatillos: Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse them under cold water to remove any sticky residue. Dice the tomatillos into small cubes.

2. Combine the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the diced tomatillos, mango, pineapple, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño (if using). Mix everything together until well combined.

3. Add Lime Juice and Season: Add the lime juice to the salsa and stir to incorporate. Taste the salsa and add salt as needed to enhance the flavors.

4. Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

This tomatillo and mango-pineapple salsa is perfect as a dip for tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled chicken, fish, or tacos. You can adjust the heat by adding more or less jalapeño or serrano pepper, and customize the balance of sweetness and tartness by adjusting the amount of lime juice and pineapple.
