It’s officially summer, and nothing is more refreshing on a hot day than a large bowl of fruit salad sprinkled with Tajin seasoning. Tajin is a fantastic chili lime spice that makes the great flavors in this fruit salad pop. It just has chili, lime, and salt as ingredients (and is gluten free/vegan) so it’s a simple addition to this salad.

Tajin is a fantastic Mexican chili lime spice that tastes great on just about everything. I first had Tajin and fruit when I lived in California, and it was always my go-to snack. This is a great fruit salad to bring to a summer BBQ, cookout, or potluck, and it’s always a crowd-pleaser!

This no-cook Tajin fruit salad is a quick and simple recipe.  I love a good no-cook recipe for those days when I’m not feeling like standing around the stove, or for summer nights when it’s too hot to cook. I have a whole collection of recipes that require zero cooking at all, check them out here!  

This fruit salad comes together in about 10-15 minutes, and doesn’t require the stove or microwave to make. Just use a few pantry staple ingredients and you have a tasty meal ready in no time.  And very little to clean up afterwards… an added bonus!

  • Tajin – my favorite chili lime seasoning! It’s great on fruit (like this salad), tofu, chicken, or tacos. It just has chili, salt, and lime – that’s it! There is even a low sodium version too.
  • Mango – delicious, juicy, ripe, in-season mangoes are perfect for this fruit salad.
  • Pineapple – I used a pineapple I got from my Misfits Market box 🙂
  • Kiwi – a wonderfully tangy and sweet addition.
  • Peaches – great for slicing or cubing in this fruit salad
  • Papaya – another fantastic tropical fruit that is so good with this lime and chili seasoning. These can be difficult to find in store, so if you can’t find papaya, then I would recommend adding another mango to the mix!
  • Lime Juice – for a little extra kick of flavor.
