Peach and Tomato Salad

This nice refreshing summer salad is perfect for a nice brunch or a side.

Ingredients

  • 5 ripened medium tomatoes, chopped into large chunks
  • 5 ripened peaches, chopped into large chunks
  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1/3 cup chopped cilantro
  • olive oil
  • juice of one lime
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Toss together the tomatoes, peaches, onion, and cilantro.
  2. Juice half the lime over the bowl. Go once around the bowl with the olive oil (meaning, let out enough oil to go in a slow circle).
  3. Add a big pinch of salt and several grinds fresh black pepper.
  4. Toss well, and refrigerate for just a half hour or so.
  5. Toss again before serving, season with additional salt and lime.

To Make the salsa:

  1. Finely dice two tomatoes, and two peaches.
  2. Add in 3 T minced red onion and 3 T chopped cilantro.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the juice of one lime, 1/4 tsp grated garlic, 1/2 tsp cumin, big pinch of salt, and 5 shakes of Tobasco.
  4. Pour dressing over salsa ingredients, and mix well.
  5. Let chill in fridge for at least one hour before serving.
  6. If you like a smoother salsa, you could throw all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and pulse a few times.
