Presidential Peach Salsa

This week's song inspired a concoction that's both presidential and peachy because:

a) it's boss
b) there are peaches in it
c) it's saucy, sweet, refreshing, and full of confidence - just like our President.

This is a great recipe when you want to break free from the tomato salsa monotony and wow some friends at a gathering. We ate it with organic corn chips but you could use it on bean burritos or get sassy and do some sweet and spicy nachos. Take this recipe and think outside the box, or jar.

Presidential Peach Salsa
1/4 cup onion, diced
2 cups peaches, skinned and cubed
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
1 Tb fresh basil, minced
1 jalapeno minced and seeded
2 Tb orange juice
2 Tb lime juice
1/2 tsp sea salt

- In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and toss well.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to marry. Note that the jalapeno will slowly heat up, so wait before adding more if at first it's not spicy enough. Serve cold.
