Ingredients
  

For the Salsa
  • 2-3 pieces ripe peaches Freshness and sweetness add a delightful dimension; substitute with ripe mangoes for a tropical twist.
  • 1 medium red bell pepper Adds crunch and vibrant color; yellow bell peppers can provide a milder flavor.
  • 1 small red onion Offers a sharp, refreshing taste; green onions can be a lighter, milder alternative.
  • 1 handful fresh cilantro Infuses herbaceous flavor; swap in parsley for a unique twist.
  • 1 piece jalapeño pepper Introduces spice; for milder heat, remove the seeds or use serrano peppers.
For the Dressing
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice Brings necessary acidity and brightness; lemon juice is a suitable substitute.

  • 1 pinch salt Enhances overall flavor profile; trying sea salt can elevate the taste.
