Preserving Food–Canning Peach Salsa, THM E, SF, SF, GF

Sweet juicy peaches are now in season. If you have never tried Peach Salsa, you really must! The sweet from the peaches and the heat from the jalapenos are just perfect to the taste buds. Another appeal is that it pleases the eye with the lovely array of color!

This salsa was made using Baby Gold peaches which are a canning peach. They are firmer and will keep their shape better than other peaches. Add an array of colors by using red peppers, jalapeños, and purple onion.

This salsa is a great condiment for various meats. It adds a wonderful flavor to grilled salmon and chicken.

I can’t live without this Vidalia Onion chopper. I use it so often in canning or chopping veggies for meals. It gives uniform pieces which gives and helps the salsa look so appealing.

This canning tool set is so useful when preserving food. I have an old jar lifter that was my mother’s. It holds so many memories of canning as a young girl. The funnel helps to keep the jars cleaner when filling them.

I bought a case of these Xochitl Chips at a discount store. We love the crunchiness of these.

These Tostitos are baked and have 50% less fat than other corn chips.

Cilantro is an acquired taste and if you dont enjoy it, you can substitute parsley.

Grapefruit spoons are very helpful if the Baby Gold peaches are too hard to twist without cutting the seed loose. Freestone peaches will twist apart very easily.
