Refreshing Pineapple Cucumber Salad

Ingredients

• 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and chopped into bite-sized pieces

• 1 English cucumber, sliced into thin half-moons

• 2 limes: zest and juice

• ⅓ cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro

• Salt & freshly-ground black pepper, optional

Instructions

1. Prepare the pineapple: Remove the top and bottom, peel, core, and chop into roughly ½‑inch chunks.

2. Prepare the cucumber: Wash well, slice in half lengthwise, then into thin half-moons.

3. Add lime zest & juice: Zest the limes, then juice them and add both to the bowl with the pineapple and cucumber.

4. Mix in herbs and seasoning: Add the chopped cilantro. Gently toss everything together, then season with salt and pepper if desired.

5. Serve or chill: You can serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to eat. Flavors develop even more when chilled.
