LaWanna’s Mango Salsa on Tilapia Fillets

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.

Original recipe makes 4 servings

1/2 fresh pineapple – peeled, cored, and chopped
1/2 pound strawberries, quartered

1 large mango – peeled, seeded and diced

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
