🫐🌽 My Blueberry Salsa is made with fresh blueberries, strawberries, corn, jalapeño, and cilantro. EASY and ready in 5 minutes, it’s crisp, savory, sweet, and SO good!

Fresh Blueberry Salsa Recipe
I love salsa. Traditional restaurant-style, peach mango, avocado corn, mango chipotle, you name it, I love it.
It’s even better when the salsa is chunky enough that I can eat it on its own as a ‘salad’. Enter: this easy blueberry salsa that’s packed with fresh blueberries, strawberries, corn, jalapeño, and more. The corn adds incredible sweetness and texture that I don’t see in other blueberry salsa recipes!
Ready in 5 minutes, it’s the perfect warm-weather appetizer or snack. However, it’s also delicious as a topping or a main course, topped with protein like grilled lemon chicken or grilled jerk shrimp.
No tortilla chips (technically) are necessary to enjoy this fruit salsa recipe, although they make everything better!

Ingredients You’ll Need
The perfect way to take advantage of fresh produce and your local farmers’ market, this blueberry salsa recipe comes together with just a few simple ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
- Fresh blueberries: I don’t recommend using frozen blueberries. They will be mushy and cause the salsa to be too watery
- Corn: I used frozen corn that I allowed to thaw and then drained. However, fresh sweet corn straight off the cob or grilled sweet corn may be substituted
- Strawberries
- Jalapeño: The heat is easily controlled by adding less or more of the jalapeño and hot sauce based on preference
- Cilantro
- Lime juice
- Hot sauce

How to Make Blueberry Salsa
This salsa with corn and blueberries is as easy to make as stirring together the ingredients. It’s ready in five minutes flat!
- Combine all the ingredients in a bowl.
- Season to taste.
- There’s texture galore in every bite, which I love. However, you can add some or all of the salsa to a food processor and blend it if you prefer a smooth texture.
- Serve immediately, or chill in the fridge. The salsa tastes great right away, but in time the flavors marry, and it tastes even better a day or two later.
