Cucumber and Peach Salsa

This is a great summer salsa that is refreshing on those hot days. It perfectly pairs with just about any grilled white flaky fish and some of the more mild steak fish.

If possible, aim to use peaches that are very ripe and sweet. The soft sweet of the peach plays very nicely with the refreshing wet crunch of the cucumber in this salsa.

I prefer a more mild onion for this salsa as to not over take the flavors of the peach and cucumber.

Remove the jalapeno peppers and you got a kid friendly salsa. Use on fish tacos and the kids will be begging for more.

Allow up to 4 hours for the flavors to combine. Place in the refrigerator in an air tight container until use. This is a salsa that is best served a little colder than room temperature.
