Peach Salsa

Peach Salsa {Cruda} 

Some of you know my passion for fresh Colorado Western Slope Peaches - I came up with this "salsa/cruda" Summer of 2010. This is a great, fresh salsa/cruda that you can use warmed over grilled fish or chicken but, also use as a dip with tortilla chips. 

Ingredients:
2 ripe peaches, coaresly chopped
4 Roma tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 small onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 jalapeno, seeded, ribs removed, diced
3/4 Cup fresh parsley, chopped (1/2 Cup Cilantro if preferred)
2 Tbs fresh Basil, chopped
2 Tbs Garlic Chive *optional 
1 Garlic Clove, minced
2 Tbs Lime Juice (or juice of 1 lime) 
1 Tbs White wine vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cracked pepper

Directions: Combine all ingredients in food processor, and pulse 15-20 times, or until desired consistency is reached. Stir & Taste and add more seasonings to your liking (salt, pepper, garlic, jalapeno) pulse 2 more times and stir. 

Refrigerate and use within 2 weeks (this usually gets eaten FAST)
