Fruit Salsa
This salsa adds a sweet, spicy accent to Grilled Pork Tenderloin, and can be made with nearly any fruit: peaches, nectarines, grapes, oranges (or a mix of oranges and grapefruit), apricots, plums, pineapple, mangos, tomatoes, or avocados. You could also use fresh corn kernels, cooked and cooled first.
-
1-1/2 cups fruit (see the note above), cut into small dice, or cooked corn kernels

1/4 medium red onion, cut into small dice, or 2 scallions (white and light green parts), thinly sliced

1/4 yellow or red bell pepper, cut into small dice

1 fresh jalapeño or other hot chile, cored, seeded, and minced
