- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.25 teaspoon salt

Instructions
Start by preparing all the ingredients. Dice the pineapple, mango, and papaya into small, uniform pieces to ensure even distribution of flavors.
Dice the red bell pepper and finely chop the red onion for a slight crunch.
Chop the cilantro and finely dice the jalapeño, removing the seeds if a less spicy salsa is desired.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced pineapple, mango, papaya, red bell pepper, and red onion.
Add the chopped cilantro and diced jalapeño to the bowl.
Squeeze the lime juice over the fruit and vegetable mixture, ensuring every ingredient is well coated.
Drizzle in the honey, then season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Gently toss the salsa until all the ingredients are evenly mixed and coated with the lime juice and honey.
Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled as a dip with tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled chicken, shrimp, or fish.
