Tropical flavors come together in this crunchy and juicy salad. It’s light, refreshing, and so good!

I’m obsessed with tropical flavors and everything tropical. If I were to plan a vacation, my first pick would be a tropical destination filled with beaches! I came up with this salad on a hot Texas summer day. While raiding my kitchen to whip up something light, refreshing, and quick, I came up with this delicious salad.

Pineapple is one of those popular fruits that are available in stores during the summer. You can absolutely impress your guests with this refreshing salad. You could also add ingredients like avocados or cucumbers.

When to serve this salad?


Pool parties! This is one of those perfect salads to make ahead of time, refrigerate, and serve cold for a hot summer day. It has fresh herbs like mint and cilantro, giving it a freshness like no other.
