Ingredients Needed:
This is a quick overview of the ingredients you’ll need for this Peach Salsa Recipe. Specific measurements and full recipe instructions are in the printable recipe card below.
- fresh ripe peaches – make sure they are ripe, sweet, and juicy
- tomatoes – I usually use a mix of roma tomatoes and beef steak, whatever large tomatoes you can find
- red onion – adds a nice tangy flavor
- cilantro – a must for salsa
- jalapeno pepper
- minced garlic
- fresh lime juice – use fresh squeezed, not bottled. You can substitute for fresh lemon juice too.
- granulated sugar – add to taste depending how sweet you want the salsa
- salt – adds a little flavor, and balances out the sweetness
How to make Peach Salsa?
- Prepare all your ingredients by dicing them into small pieces. Add all the ingredients to a medium bowl and stir them all together. Taste the salsa, and add more salt, or sugar to taste.
Tips and Tricks:
- I like to dice everything up to be pretty small, but cut the peaches and tomatoes bigger if you like a chunkier salsa. You can add them to a food processor to get them to a smaller size as well.
- Use fresh peaches for this recipe. Do not substitute for frozen or canned peaches. You want to use juicy peaches that are ripe, and sweet.
Substitution Ideas:
- If you aren’t a fan of cilantro you can leave it out. Try adding fresh basil or mint for a different herbal twist.
- Instead of a teaspoon of sugar, add a little honey or agave nectar to sweeten the salsa.
- Try adding 1 cup of diced mango to make a peach mango salsa.
- This recipe is super customizable, if you want it less spicy add less jalapenos or a less spicy pepper. If you want more peaches, try that, try red bell pepper instead of red onion, etc.
