Fresh Salsa

I have been trying multiple fresh salsa recipes and wasn't able to make one that we really liked.  A friend then told me a few things she puts into hers and I gave it a shot.  Neither Megan or Krista are big fans of fresh salsa (they don't like the chunks) but I made this when they were over and they devoured it.  Definitely a winner.  You can put in as much or as little of each ingredient as you like.  

Ingredients:

• 5-6 Tomatoes 
• Green Pepper 
• White onion
• Jalapeño 
• Uncooked corn (I used red corn from my Bountiful Basket in the picture below)
• 1/2 peach 
• Salt and Pepper 

Enjoy!
