This Paleo Fruit Salsa recipe is so freaking good, I don’t even know how to talk about it. Or write about it. But let me try. If you would have told me years ago that strawberries, oranges, and mangos pair well with raw red onion, green onion, and cilantro, then I would have laughed right in your face. What in the actual how?

But it’s true. These ingredients were meant to be together. Kinda like Tony and Ziva, almond butter and chocolate, and Jessica Fletcher and her typewriter. You know that’s right.

And THEN if you would have said to pair this salsa with chips, mixed nuts, and an assortment of crackers, I would have straight up cackled. But, alas, you would have been right. This Paleo Fruit Salsa is destined for charcuterie boards, breakfast spreads, and parties. Basically, this fruit salsa is just meant to be in the know. It’s meant to be everywhere.

So let’s do this. Let’s make ourselves some delicious Fruit Salsa!

Paleo Fruit Salsa is

  • Gluten-free
  • Grain-free
  • Paleo
  • Dairy-free
  • Fresh and easy to store
  • Perfect for parties or individual servings

If you’re in the market for a deliciously sweet and piquant flavor, then you’re in the right place!

Paleo Fruit Salsa ingredients

  • Strawberries
  • Mandarin oranges
  • Mango
  • Pineapple chunks
  • Red onion
  • Green onion
  • Cilantro
  • Lime juice
  • Honey (paleo) or agave nectar (vegan)

Let me also add that the amounts listed by each ingredient are a guideline. Please read this as, “Morgan just started throwing foods she likes eating into a bowl and began to stir.”

Best practices for your own Paleo Fruit Salsa

  • Chop the fruits ahead of time. Depending on how much juice you want in your salsa, you may want to chop/dice the fruits ahead of time so you can strain any excess juice you DON’T want in the salsa. But this is entirely optional. I’ve made it with a lot of juice (delicious) and strained (also delicious).
  • Keep it chilled and enjoy it sooner rather than later. Paleo Fruit Salsa is all kinds of incredibly delicious. But the fruits and the green onion will turn soggy after a few days. I like to make this when I’m ready to enjoy it right then and there. Although, to be fair, our family devours this salsa in no time so it never lasts long enough to turn soggy.
  • Use fresh onions and cilantro. This is one recipe where fresh is best. If the cilantro isn’t fresh, then toss it. I buy my cilantro within about 24 hours of when I plan to use it. That way I know it’s as fresh as it can possibly be. I also select the freshest-looking leaves.

However you want to prepare your salsa, there’s a particularly good chance it will work well for you! This fruit salsa is just that good!

Salsas, salsas, and more salsas!

  • Roasted Salsa Verde
  • Winter Fruit Salsa
  • Spicy Chimichurri Verde Sauce
  • Chimichurri Rojo Sauce
  • Paleo Winter Salad

The aforementioned salsas, sauces, and spreads will work well with crackers, chips, and veggies and well as on top of main dishes and baked goods! There’s also plenty to choose from for a savory bite or to satisfy a sweet tooth.

Spiriteds, I hope this sweet and piquant Fruit Salsa recipe finds you well. Take care of yourselves and know that I’m glad you’re here! ❤️
