95% of the meals/items I make during the summer seem too simple to end up on the blog (mainly because I'm often haphazardly throwing things together, not taking the time to document anything.) I love the freshness and the color- it's hard to beat a combination like that.
This salsa is one of those 'recipe that's not really a recipe' but I'm serious about the stone fruit. I went a bit crazy at the market, picking up a few of each variety but it's the best decision I've made- the differences in the fruit made for one lovely salsa. While I typically eat this with chips, I think it would be an awesome addition to a quesadilla or a topping for fried halloumi (like this recipe, but with this salsa instead of the blueberry mixture.) I highly suggest playing around with different varieties or you know, just use all peaches- it's still delicious.

This looks delicious. I kinda like the idea of making it a spicy fruit salad and chopping it into large chunks. Also side note - I LOVE that grey pin strip tea towel!

stone fruit salsa?! I'm in. Simple is better in the Summer. And sweet fruit + jalapenos (over that halloumi you mentioned!) = perfect for a hot day.

Wow, what an awesome idea. A stone fruit salad? So neat! I don't think I've ever had such a thing before.

This would be amazing on fish tacos!

This sounds like a wonderful change of pace from standards salsas. I'd have to omit the onion, because raw onions and I don't get along well. It could also be good with grilled meats. Thanks for posting this.

Yum! I love to make peach salsa, but I love the idea to add other stone fruit like plums. I love to make mine with some fresh mint, as well.
I often skip posting about my summertime meals, as well, thinking that they are too simple. But, I love reading about what others are making, even if the dishes seem simple... It's a great way to find inspiration for quick and easy meals, especially in the summer. Thanks!

This is so me; I am in love with simple, healthy, colorful and fresh recipes during summers. It is OKAY, they say summers are lazy and time to stay fit and fine. Thanks for sharing a quick recipe. Can I add some mint?
