Ingredients

Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine cucumber, onion, chiles, lime juice, and salt.
- Using a small knife, score the flesh of Avocado halves in cross-hatch pattern, taking care to not cut through skin. Using large spoon, scoop the cubed Avocado into bowl with vegetables and stir gently to combine, taking care not to mash avocado.
- Mix in pineapple, and half the cilantro. Season to taste with additional chile, lime juice, and salt, if desired. Transfer guacamole to wide, shallow serving bowl and sprinkle on remaining cilantro. If desired, cover with plastic wrap, pressing it onto surface of salsa, and refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
- If chilled, bring salsa to room temperature before serving. Because of acid in pineapple, this salsa will not discolor as quickly as other guacamoles.
