Scrumptious Saturdays-Peach Salsa


Get your shopping list ready for this one!!!  Who doesn't love chips and salsa? 

I didn't see one hand go up so keep on reading....................



I discovered this delightful salsa last summer and have been craving it for weeks now.  I decided today it was time to make it again.

You know I don't make anything difficult so needless to say this is SUPER easy.  It does require a bit of chopping, but turn on the radio and enjoy a tune while you chop. 



There is not much of a recipe because you basically chop and mix together. And for most of the ingredients you will just use your judgement on.......add however much you and your family like.  You can make it as spicy as you like.  Or as mild as you like. 

So here is what you will need to pick up at the grocery store today!


Peach Salsa
3 peaches, chopped
1 tablespoons. lemon juice
3 ripe tomatoes, chopped
5 large green onions

2-3 gloves of garlic, finely chopped
canned/bottled jalapeno peppers, chopped...to your liking
cilantro, coarsely chopped.....add as much as you like
4 tablespoons good quality olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons honey


I didn't think the boys would like it but I always make them try everything.  So I added a little jalapeno so they could taste.  Once I knew they were not going to eat it I turned up the heat!
Get ready for a mouth explosion!!!  It is so fresh!!  Warning: it is a little on the oniony side. Just add less if you are not crazy about onions. 

It is great with chips, but would also be tasty on pork,fish or grilled chicken. Oh that sounds good!  And you can't beat chips and salsa with a cold beer or margarita.


This recipe made enough to fill up two Mason jars and this little bowl. 



Hope you make some soon!  I know it will not be the last time I make it this summer.
