I enjoy making different fruity salsas in the summer months, like Peach-Cucumber Salsa, for example. And here’s another one I like—Watermelon-Peach Salsa! I’m a big fan of both watermelon and peaches, and if you are too, you’ll need to try this!

Peach-Cucumber Salsa
It sure has been hot these past few weeks! I have some potted herbs growing outside and have been having to water them alot in this heat! How about you—do you have a container garden or a vegetable garden in your yard? If you happen to be growing any cucumbers, here’s a recipe you can use them in—Peach-Cucumber Salsa! It’s perfect for summer because this salsa is a little fruity, lightly sweet, and a little spicy—it’s great as a snack with tortilla chips or served as a side dish with chicken or fish.

Are you staying cool during the hot weather we’ve been having? This is the time of year when I probably eat the most fruit. I love all kinds of fruit and that’s what I like about this Mango-Jalapeno Salsa–there’s a nice variety of fruit—mango, pineapple, and apple—–mixed in with some diced tomato and red bell pepper. It’s a little on the spicy side, so use half the amount of jalapeno and ginger if you want a milder salsa. Overall, I think this is a great, healthy mix of naturally sweet and savory flavors!

Creamy dips are great to snack on, whether you’re visiting with friends or watching a big game. And if you’re keeping track of calories, this Creamy Salsa Yogurt Dip is a good one to try. This yummy dip is a little more on the healthy side compared to other dips. It’s made with yogurt, salsa, a little bit of light mayo, and some seasoning. Shredded cheese is optional, but I really like it with the cheese, even though it’s not quite as healthy that way! The dip shown here is made with Pepper Jack cheese, which gives it a little extra spice.

One of the things I love about this salsa is that it’s such a summery recipe and I really do love the summer season—even if it can get a little too hot at times! This salsa is made with some of my favorite fruits and veggies…strawberries, avocado, and cucumber! It’s a great twist on your typical salsa if you’re wanting to try something different. The strawberries and honey make it naturally sweet and the lime juice, chopped green chiles, and pepper give it a mild spiciness (use chopped jalapeño if you really want it spicy).
