Doesn’t the word “tropical” make everything seem better?
I think pineapples are so pretty! This salsa is definitely good enough to eat on its own.
My favorite Food Should Taste Good Sweet Potato Tortilla Chips … a mouth full, but I love those chips!
I decided to pair this salsa with some baked tilapia. I didn’t even marinate the tilapia. Super easy!
Baked Tilapia with Tropical Pineapple Mango Salsa
Print this recipe!
Salsa:
2 cups fresh pineapple, cubed
1 mango, peeled and diced
1 cup red onion, diced (about 1/2 of a large red onion)
1/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 lime, juiced
1/8 tsp salt
Tilapia:
4 tilapia filets
salt/pepper
Prepare the salsa – in a large bowl, combine the pineapple, mango, red onion, cilantro and lime juice. Add salt to taste if you would like (it helps bring out some of the flavors).
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the tilapia on a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 10 minutes, and then flip and season the other side of the fish. Cook an additional 10 minutes, or until the fish easily flakes with a fork.
Top with the salsa, and enjoy!
I served the tilapia with some oven fries – so I could try Brianne’s Balsamic Ketchup. Yum!
A very delicious meal!

I think pineapple salsa is one of my favorite veggie burger/salad toppers. Tropical DOES make everything better!

I’m not a big fish eater, sadly. That salsa could make so many things yummy though!

Thank you Lori! I never have grilled pineapple, but I keep meaning to do that. I have one on my kitchen counter now, so I might just do that this weekend!
mmmmmmm, grilled pineapple with a bit of coconut icecream on top, best dessert!!!
Looks like the perfect summer BBQ dish!

It does look delicious and I love the photos on this post, so colorful and pretty. I haven’t bought fresh pineapple in forever, I need to fix that!

Thank you so much! I was rather proud of the photos, I thought they turned out good! I love pineapple … plus did you know if you feed it to dogs, it is supposed to help them not eat their poop? I don’t know if you have that problem… but left to his own devices, my little guy sometimes like to eat it.. so gross I know! The pineapple is supposed to make it not appeal to dogs … I’m not 100% sure it works, but I do feed him some every now and then!
I love tilapia and pineapple!! I’m forwarding this to my hubby.
Maybe he will make it for me when I get back from Blend??
