Equipment needed: Large mixing bowl, sharp knife and a cutting board.
Ingredients
- 2 Ripe Peaches
- 1 Ripe Mango
- 1/4 cup Red Onion (Finely diced)
- 1/4 cup Red Bell Pepper
- 1-2 Roma tomatoes
- 1 Jalapeño
- 1 Tablespoon of Cilantro (chopped)
Dressing Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons of Fresh Lime Juice (see notes)
- 1 Lime Zest (from one lime)
- 1 Teaspoon Honey
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Optional).
Instructions
- 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.
Notes
- Fresh Lemon Juice or a splash of Orange Juice are suitable substitutes for Lime Juice.
- Soften the honey by warming it up for 5-7 seconds in the microwave for ease of mixing.
- Make this salad 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.
Store leftover salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep it fresh. It’ll stay delicious for up to 2-3 days.
