Nectarines have a similar taste to peaches, you can use peaches if you don’t have nectarines. This one can be blended or simply chopped to make it a chunky salsa. Great with steak tacos!

1 serrano pepper, seeded
2 tbsp (30 mL) finely chopped red onion

1/4 tsp salt to taste
Additional finely chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
