Sailors Salsa :: Submitted by Laura Haas Knight

2 cans Mixed Fruit, diced (I prefer Dole Tropical Mixed Fruit-Pineapple, Papaya, Mango)
1 red sweet bell pepper, diced
1/4 cup chopped red onion
3 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
3 tablespoons lime juice
3 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons dark spiced rum (Captain Morgan’s)
3-4 tablespoons cumin
Fresh garlic (I love garlic so I use 4 cloves) salt, to taste

Dice and combine all ingredients and refrigerate until chilled. This makes an excellent side with white fish (tilapia, halibut), chicken or pork.
