Tropical Salsa

Been out of town working with glass..on the torch...lampworking or now also known as torchworking.  So what's new?  Had to make a run to the closest H-Mart yesterday.  No, they didn't have the pineapple in the can..shortcut...but scallions 7 bunches for $1...cilantro 3 for 1$....nothing like the oriental markets...fresh and less expensive..and their meats and poultry...and lots of fresh fish...so this salsa will go with chips..and pork or chicken...You can call it Pineapple Salsa if you like..made lots of it for catering...

Tropical Salsa
2    20oz crushed pineapple, own juice, drain well
1    cup     tomato, small dice
1.5   each red onion, small dice
2  t ground cumin
1  each red bell pepper, small dice
2.5  tablespoon red wine vinegar
2  tablespoon olive oil
1/2  each large jalapeno, small dice
6  tablespoon lemon juice
6  tablespoon lime juice
1  cup cilantro, chopped

I did add a couple of shakes of Tabasco...yes..you can change the fruit around..I use the crushed as trying to make quarts of it for parties...sure did save hours chopping....yes, you can make it hotter, milder...but this is the bases...fix it this way...and then if you want to change it...change it...but this is fast, easy, and people love it....so you want a picture too....you all really want a lot...
