Tonight I am doing my first ever cooking demonstration. Well, the first in front of people I don’t know. Anyway, I’m whipping up Zesty Peach Salsa with fresh peaches from Yaryan’s Orchard in Green Bluff, WA. They were so sweet and delicious. What? I had to give them a taste. 🙂 As I always tell my kids, “I have to make sure it’s not poisonous”. Those words usually come out of my mouth as I’m passing them a Frappacino with Whipped Cream. Yes, I’m that Mom.
Back to the recip – it’s super quick, super tasty and if you’ve never made a savory salsa with fruit before, you’ll be hooked! This recipe is easily adapted by substituting watermelon, plums and even cherries (see recipe link below). Give it a try!
