Peach Cherry Salsa is a sweet spicy mixture that offers a burst of summer's bounty with every bite. Serve on pork, salmon & chicken or as an appetizer dip.
In a large bowl, combine peaches, cherries, red onion, bell pepper and jalapeno.
Pour lime juice over all and toss gently.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour and up to 24 hours before serving.
Just prior to serving, dice avocado and toss gently with salsa mixture. Sprinkle with a little salt.
Notes
Frequently asked questions
Can I make this ahead of time?Of course! You can make it anywhere from one hour to 24 hours ahead and refrigerate. This will actually help the flavors to marry or blend together better. However, don't add the avocado until just before serving or up to 30 minutes before.Do I have to use peaches?No, this is an easy recipe to adapt. You can substitute nectarines for the peaches and opt for mango or pineapple in place of the cherries too. Make it your own with your favorite fruits.Does this salsa freeze well?No, I wouldn't advise freezing as the fruit will get mushy when thawed.How long will this salsa keep in the refrigerator?Mine has kept for 3 days but you have to remove the avocado as it will tend to brown and discolor the mixture.
