I know what you’re thinking. Peach salsa just sounds weird. But, just hang with me. It truly is one of my all time favorite salsas to make. The flavors come together and create something that is just magical.
Not only is the taste out of this world, it could not be easier to throw together. Minimal ingredients and very little effort result in something you will make again and again. I promise. I don’t joke about salsa. Ever.
Peach Salsa Ingredients
- Peaches
- Shallots
- Jalapeno
- Cilantro
- Lime Juice
- Kosher Salt
Peach Pit Removal
Before we get started, let’s talk about the peach. A peach has a pit. The pit contains cyanide. Do not eat the pit. Please. However, it can be a bit of a pain in the…peach…to remove.
Enter, needle nose pliers. Simply insert the pliers into the middle of the peach, grabbing the pit. Squeeze the pliers and twist. The pit should easily come loose from the flesh. Now, just pull it out.
How to Make Peach Salsa
Not only is this salsa beyond delicious, it’s incredibly easy to make. All you need is a knife and a cutting board. A little chop here, a little chop there, and few minutes later, you have a lovely bowl of peach salsa. Just try to resist the urge to eat the entire bowl before you serve it.
Time needed: 10 minutes
For this super simple Peach Salsa, simply:
- Just chop and mix!
Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl. Let hang out in fridge for an hour or so.
- Enjoy!
Need I say more.

You absolutely can. If peaches are not in season, use what you can find. I would, however, advise that you use a peach product that does not have added sugar. That will make this salsa recipe a bit too sweet.
Yes and yes! No need to worry about those dietary concerns with this recipe.
