Begin by preparing the pineapple. Peel, core, and dice the fresh pineapple into small cubes, measuring out 1 cup. Transfer the diced pineapple into a medium mixing bowl.
Dice the red bell pepper into small pieces and add it to the bowl with the pineapple.
Peel the cucumber, remove the seeds for a crisper texture, and dice it into small cubes, adding it to the same bowl.
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the mix, followed by the small, finely chopped jalapeño. Ensure you remove the seeds to keep the salsa from becoming too spicy.
Chop the fresh cilantro leaves and stir them into the mixture in the bowl.
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the chopped ingredients, enhancing the overall flavor of the salsa.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste as preferred.
Gently toss all the ingredients together with a spoon or spatula until well combined, ensuring the lime juice coats everything evenly.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the Keto Fresh Pineapple Salsa chilled as a side dish, topping, or dip.
