Notes
Leftovers & Storage: Store the pineapple pico de gallo in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Freshly cut pineapple will release a lot of liquid after it has been allowed to sit, so you may need to drain it or mix the salsa together again before serving. For the best avocado freshness, cut right before serving.
