Chunky Shrimp, Pineapple and Avocado Salsa

This chunky, tropical salsa makes for an excellent party dip with tortilla chips for scooping, or a light lunch piled on a bed of greens. Our Sweet Lime & Cilantro Vinaigrette is delicious with the juicy pineapple and plump shrimp. If you’d like to make this salsa in advance, wait to fold your avocado in right before serving so that it doesn’t discolor in the fridge.
