Roasted Tomato and Pineapple Salsa

This is a very complicated salsa recipe, I’m not going to lie, but it’s so tasty! There are a lot of ingredients cooked a few different ways, and the results are fantastic. You can really taste everything and it comes together as a sweet, sour, spicy salsa that’s just super flavorful. The recipe is from Truly Mexican, my fave. Would be perfect for Super Bowl this weekend!

Ingredients:

1 lb tomatoes (4 small/medium)

1 1/2 cups pineapple chunks

1 medium red onion, peeled whole and cut into 1/2” rounds

5 garlic cloves, peeled

3 dried arbol chiles, wiped clean and stemmed

1 small poblano or hot Italian pepper

pinch allspice

2 tbsp chopped jalapeño chiles, including seeds

1/2 cup chopped cilantro

1/2 cup fresh squeezed orange juice

3 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice

2 tbsp distilled white vinegar

2 tbsp water

1 1/2 tsp sugar

1 1/2 tsp fine salt or 1 tbsp kosher salt
