A delicious fruity salsa topping to serve over fish or chicken, from a friend in Florida. I always use whatever that I have left in a mixed greens salad the next day. Use any kind of fish -- I use tilapia or salmon. The fish may also be grilled, which is what I prefer. If I can't find a good fresh pineapple, I will use canned pineapple tidbits.

This was pretty good. With all the lovely fresh veggies around this was a great way getting hubby to eat fish (that isn't fried) because he loves pineapplel and mango. The fish was pretty plain so I added some smoked paprika before I grilled it. As for the salsa - I liked the balsamic in the salsa - hubby did not care for it. I think he thought it would have a terriyaki flavor with the pineapple and mango. Thanks for an inspiring recipe. Read More

I added salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to the fish before pan-frying. None of my family likes the tomatoes in what we called the "fruit salad." So they will be left off the next time. Read More

I loved the flavours in the salsa mix! I did not use the rice as a bed only the salsa for the tilapia bed. It was absolutely delicious with all the different flavours! Read More
