# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The sweet heat combination keeps everyone coming back for just one more chip
  • It comes together in minutes but tastes like something you would order at a fancy restaurant
02 -
  • This salsa tastes best the same day because the fruit will start to break down and release more liquid overnight
  • Adjust the lime juice and salt right before serving, as the fruit will naturally sweeten as it sits
03 -
  • Let your diced fruit sit on paper towels for 10 minutes before mixing if your strawberries are especially juicy
  • Grill the pineapple briefly before dicing for a smoky depth that people will not be able to place
