Wash the rhubarb stalks, red bananas, and blackberries thoroughly. Pat dry with paper towels.
Trim and discard the ends of the rhubarb stalks. Slice the rhubarb into 1/4-inch pieces.
Peel the red bananas and chop them into bite-sized chunks.
Heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the rhubarb slices and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until they begin to soften.
Stir in the honey, lime juice, grated ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Cook for another 3 minutes, allowing the mixture to soften and the flavors to combine.
Gently add the chopped red banana and blackberries to the skillet and stir to incorporate. Cook for an additional 5-6 minutes, just until the bananas are heated through and the blackberries release some of their juices.
Remove the skillet from heat and taste for sweetness, adding more honey if needed.
If desired, finely chop fresh mint leaves and stir them into the salsa for added brightness.
Serve the warm salsa immediately as a topping or side dish. It can also be cooled slightly and served at room temperature.
