I was at a loss once again for dinner the other night, so I called upon my ever faithful twitter pals! I needed something fast and that could be prepped ahead and thrown together in about 5 minutes. I ended up with some really good suggestions – pasta with fresh tomato sauce, quesadillas, breakfast for dinner… All great suggestions but then Maria from Two Peas and Their Pod hit me with a wrap and my dinner evolved from there!
We ended up having grilled tilapia in a tortilla with fresh pineapple salsa and it was amazing but it would be excellent with chicken as well. It’s a very versatile salsa and one I will be making again and again!!!
Pineapple Salsa
Ingredients:
1 8 oz can of pineapple chunks in juice, cut up smaller
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup onion, finely diced
1 jalapeno, seeds and membrane removed and finely chopped
1/4 cup red pepper, finely chopped
juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
Mix all ingredients together and allow to chill in the fridge for about 1 hr before serving.
As Always…
Happy Entertaining!!!

I have some Basa fillets in the freezer. I know what I'm having for dinner. Looks awesome. Thanks for sharing!
This looks awesome Judy! Love the idea of a pineapple salsa and we love tilapia, so will be trying this recipe. Thanks!
Judy, these look fantastic--what a great combo!
Looks awesome! I love getting suggestions from twitter, so many different ideas that I get inspired to try something new.
This looks great! I finally found a fish shop near our new place - I am really really hoping it is a good one! I love love love fish tacos!
Holy crap, that looks amazing! I love tilapia, I really need to get some soon.
Wow! sounds delicious...photos are gorgeous.
I love tropical fruit salsas, come to think of it I don't think that I have made one in ages. Fish it always a hit around here, I might have to try this tonight! The photos look delicious.
This post makes me glad I put some cilantro plants in my herb garden this Spring!
Here I am to formally tell you I want this now (it's morning). The fish has some awesome grill marks and there'a a nice sweet/savory thing going on.
Now, I'm going to "pinch" this.
This salsa looks amazing. I don't suppose you'd care to send some this way....
Judy this really looks tasty and beautiful. I've been experimenting with fruit in salsa for a couple of years now, but have never tried pineapple. Very, very nice.
That taco looks really good! I really like the sound of that pineapple salsa!
That's gorgeous!
