I can’t tell you how excited I am to be guest posting on Simply Gourmet today. Sherron and I have been Facebook buddies for about a year or so. We have a lot in common. We both love food and photography. It’s a friendship made in Heaven. So when Sherron asked if anyone wanted to guest post for her, I jumped at the chance. I apologize to you now that the photography isn’t spot on like you’re used to seeing. Sherron’s pictures are drool worthy for sure.

- Black beans
- Red onion
- Garlic cloves
- Jalapeño
- Grapeseed oil or olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Cilantro
I had a pineapple that was on the counter calling my name the other night. So I decided to grill it and make a quick savory salsa with it. The “mmmms” and “ohhhhs” were flying around the table. Who knew that a quick sear, some pungent red onion and black beans could transform an ordinary pineapple into something so delish? I served this salsa over pork tenderloin, but I bet it would be amazing topping a burger, on a barbecued chicken quesadilla or adorning your favorite tortilla chip. However you decide to use it, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
