This versatile condiment is perfect for dipping tortilla chips or topping tacos, bowls, fish, chicken, and salads. It’s quick and easy to make, with just 15 minutes, 7 ingredients, and 1 bowl required! Let’s make salsa!
How to Make Peach Salsa
This simple peach salsa combines sweet, juicy peaches with cucumbers for crunch, shallot or red onion for zing, and jalapeño for subtle heat. Cilantro adds a fresh, herby element, lime juice adds brightness, and salt and pepper bring it up a notch.
Those are the ingredients we used, but it’s a versatile recipe and you can easily make it your own!
Have mango around? Try half mango and half peach.Not into cucumber? Try bell pepper, tomato, or more peach.Want it spicier? Use a hotter pepper like serrano or habanero, but start with less!Not a fan of cilantro? It’s still great without it.
Finely chop all the fruits, veggies, and herbs, then squeeze the lime, add the salt and pepper, stir it together, and you’ve got SALSA!
We hope you LOVE this peach cucumber salsa! It’s:
