Pear Pomegranate Salsa (vegan, gluten-free)
This pear pomegranate salsa is bright, refreshing, colorful, and so delicious! It’s a showstopper, but incredibly easy to make with just 7 simple ingredients! Enjoy it with some tortilla chips, on top of tacos, in burrito bowls, or on top of your choice of protein. It’s the perfect easy appetizer for any party or gathering.
This fruit salsa is both sweet and savory. The juicy pops of the pomegranate seeds, sweet pears, spice from the jalapeno, and tang from the lime make for a delicious combo! We love eating it with tortilla chips because the salty chips balances out the sweet fruit salsa.
It’s crisp, jewel-toned, and bursting with flavors that dance between sweet, tart, and subtly spicy. It would be an amazing side for the holidays too!
If you’re looking for a festive, refreshing, and impossibly pretty dish to bring to the table, this salsa checks every box. It’s the kind of recipe people notice and won’t be able to stop eating. Not to mention, it is beautiful too!
