- Add pineapple, tomato, half the shallots, half the cilantro, 1 tsp (2 tsp) lime juice and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) sugar to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. (TIP: if you prefer sweeter salsa, add additional sugar, 1/8 tsp at a time.)
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then Beyond Meat® patties, peppers and remaining shallots Cook, breaking up patties into smaller pieces, until crispy, 5-6 min.**
