Mango Peach Salsa
This fresh mango peach salsa is packed with bold summer flavor!
I usually start making this salsa around Cinco de Mayo and then onward through the summer. Tis the season for cheap mangoes (yes, even with inflation!) and in-season peaches. Tis even more the season for having people over and serving snacks.
There’s an extra step in here that you probably won’t see in other mango peach salsa recipes. After putting it together and dressing it with the lime juice, I like to let it marinate in the fridge overnight. Don’t get me wrong, if you opt to serve it the same day, it’s still going to be amazing. But letting those bold flavors meld together for a little bit longer? Magical.
Once the salsa has had some time in the fridge (even 4 hours will elevate the flavor) add half of it to a food processor or a blender and pulse it until it’s mostly smooth. However many chunks you leave is totally up to you. I like to make mine really nice and smooth.
Serving
Add the blended half of the salsa to whichever bowl you’re going to serve it in, and then stir the un-blended half right in. You get the perfect balance of smooth and chunky and the best bold flavor!
This mango peach salsa goes really well with fish tacos. Serve it along with a pile of homemade guacamole and queso!
