This 8 ingredient salsa recipe is easy to make and has the brightest, zesty flavor!
The secret ingredient? Mint! Trust me, mint makes this salsa pop!
As much as I love cilantro in salsas, mint has a whole different flavor profile and meshes so well with peaches.
You get sweet, fresh and crispness from the bell pepper, jalapeno, onion, tomatoes and peaches and a refreshing bight pop of mint and lime tie it all together.
Ingredients
8 Ingredients is all you need for this summer salsa!
- Peaches
- Red Bell Pepper
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Sweet Onion
- Jalapeno
- Mint
- Lime
- Salt
You'll dice everything into bite-size pieces and mix it all together. I like to let it sit for a little before serving so the flavors have time to marinate.
Ways to Use Salsa
Of course, chips work perfectly. But there are so many other ways to use this fruity salsa!
Try is on tacos, salads or wraps. It'll add flavor and texture to your meal.
Storage
Salsa won't keep for long in the fridge. I would recommend enjoying it within the first two days for optimal freshness, but it can last for up to three days.
Recipe Tips and FAQs
I would only use fresh peaches in this recipe. Since frozen peaches will need to defrost, the texture may be off.
If you bought one bunch of mint, I would chop about half of it for the salsa.

Appreciate your comment on using mint in place of cilantro. While I love cilantro too, think I've been a bit bored of it in salsa lately and like the idea of trying mint instead. Anxious to try this.
