Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, diced into small cubes

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 jalapeño, seeded and finely minced (adjust to your preferred level of spiciness)

1/2 red bell pepper, diced small

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped

Juice of 1 lime, freshly squeezed

1 tablespoon honey (use maple syrup for a vegan alternative)

Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prep your ingredients first: wash and dice the peaches, chop the red onion, mince the jalapeño, and dice the red bell pepper into uniform pieces for even flavor distribution.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches, chopped red onion, minced jalapeño, and diced red bell pepper. Use a spatula to gently mix without mashing the peaches.

      Add the freshly chopped cilantro to the bowl, using a folding motion to integrate it with the other ingredients, ensuring a harmonious blend of all the flavors.

        Drizzle the fresh lime juice and honey over the fruit and vegetable mixture. Carefully toss everything together until all components are evenly coated with the lime juice and honey.

          Season your salsa with salt and ground pepper to taste. For a sweeter or more acidic kick, feel free to adjust with extra honey or lime juice as needed.

            Allow the salsa to rest for 10-15 minutes at room temperature. This step enhances the flavor profile as the ingredients mingle and develop a more vibrant taste.

              Serve your Sweet Peach Salsa immediately with crispy tortilla chips, as a fresh topping for tacos, or alongside grilled chicken or fish for a delightful contrast of flavors.
