I’ve never been a fan of hot and humid weather, betting suits, or the lake days that Summer inevitably brings, but what I do love about this season is all the fresh fruit!
Berries, peaches, mangoes, cherries, apricots…I could go on and on. The colors alone are FABULOUS!
How about we combine all the best colors and flavors into a refreshing, crunchy and sweet fruit salsa. It’s a great healthy alternative to everyone’s favorite happy hour get together snack—chips and salsa.
This fruit salsa is beyond juicy. Paired with some homemade gluten-free cinnamon-sugar chips…OH DANG!
It’s the perfect summer dish, great as an appetizer, or spooned on top of pancakes, waffles, crepes, etc. One of the best parts, the salsa is completely customizable. Don’t like peaches? Sub in nectarines. Want to add some blueberries? Go for it!
