Ingredients and Substitutions
To make this fantastic Peach Mango Salsa recipe, you’ll need the following simple ingredients.
See the Printable recipe card at the bottom of this post for quantities
- Ripe peaches and Fresh Mango - nothing beats juicy ripe peaches and a delicious tropical sweetness from mangoes. If fresh peaches are not available, frozen peaches are a suitable substitute.
- Red onion – raw onions add a bit of tang and color.
- Red bell pepper - for a slight crunch and vibrant colors. You can substitute red with any colored bell peppers of your preference.
- Fresh Roma Tomatoes - for a bit of classic salsa flavor. Halved cherry tomatoes work well too.
- Jalapeño - for some spice! Adjust based on your heat preference.
- Cilantro - fresh mint or fresh basil leaves can also work for a different twist or if you are not a fan of cilantro.
Dressing Ingredients
- Lime Juice - Fresh is best! In the absence of fresh limes, you can also sub with fresh lemon juice or a splash of orange juice.
- Lime (zest) - Adds a zesty brightness. Trust me!
- Honey - Optional, but it rounds out the flavor and an extra touch of natural sweetness. I like to soften it by warming it up for ease of mixing.
- Salt - Balances the sweetness.
- A touch of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (optional) - Adds depth, flavor, and a smoother texture.
Optional Substitutions: For a slight twist, you can try substituting with Apple Cider Vinegar or Champagne Vinegar instead of lime juice. For extra crunch, toss in diced Persian Cucumbers.
Want to make it creamy? Add Creamy avocado.
Instructions
This recipe is very simple to make. Chop, toss, season, and enjoy.
- Dice the peaches and mango in about ½ inch cubes for a chunky salsa. The red onion, red pepper, tomatoes, and jalapeño in a smaller dice size, like 1/4" inch. The dice size is more up to the size and texture of your preference. You can keep it rustic or go for fine dice; it's your choice!
- Mix in the diced fruits and veggies in a large bowl. Combining them gently is essential to avoid bruising the fruits.
- Whisk the lime juice, zest, salt, honey, and extra virgin olive oil (if using) in a separate bowl. Toss in the chopped cilantro and mix.
- Toss and Taste – Mix everything gently but thoroughly. Taste and adjust the salt. Need more sweetness? Add a dash of more honey. Want a higher spice level? Increase the Jalapeño Peppers.
- Chill and Serve — For best results, let the flavors meld for 15-20 minutes. This salsa is great with tortilla chips or as a refreshing side.
Recipe Variations
- Make it a main meal – Serve with rice, shrimp, or diced chicken to turn this salsa into a light, summery bowl. Or use it as a topping for fish tacos or pork chops.
- Customize your dish—this salsa makes a perfect side dish by being layered over a bed of greens for a summery salad. The options are endless, from butter lettuce to peppery arugula, crisp romaine, or baby spinach. For that extra crunch, you can add your personal touch with crunchy almonds, pine nuts, or pumpkin seeds.
- Play with the dressing – Try a touch of balsamic vinegar for an extra flavor boost.
