2 cups fresh pineapple, diced

1 large cucumber, sliced into thin rounds

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon lime juice (freshly squeezed)

1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the diced pineapple, sliced cucumber, and red onion.
  2. If desired, add chopped fresh cilantro for an extra burst of flavor.
  3. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, and honey (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Notes

For a spicy kick, add diced jalapeño or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.

Top the salad with grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a protein boost.

Swap cilantro for mint or basil for a fresh flavor twist.
