Taste of Sunshine, Goat's Eye Pineapple Salsa

On May 5^th, we at Banff Sunshine Village look forward to treating ourselves to some Mexican-inspired cuisine and this year is no different.

Not sure what to make to please the household, well look no further. This colorful pineapple salsa will be a hit. It is the perfect combination of sweet and spicy, kind of like spring skiing on its namesake, and it is super easy to make. You can serve it with grilled chicken or fish, or as an appetizer with chips. This Cinco de Mayo why not try something new; our Goat’s Eye Pineapple Salsa will really spice up your celebrations!
