This Strawberry Peach Fruit Salad Salsa is deliciously versatile!
It can be enjoyed all on it’s own as a tasty fruit salad, as a delicious topping for grilled seafood or chicken, and as a fresh fruit salsa with cinnamon pita chips.
It’s part salsa, part fruit salad, and 100% delicious!
I went with a small batch serving, which was perfect for out little family of three to snack on one afternoon.
You’ll want to snag half a carton of juicy ripe strawberries (approx. 1/2 pound) and one large, deliciously fragrant peach.
For an easy easy dressing, orange juice, white wine vinegary and a spoonful of sugar are reduced on the stovetop into a delicious glaze. (I’M ADDICTED!!!)
Top it all off with some fresh sliced basil (optional but deeeelish) and get ready to faceplant!
Serving Suggestions
Serve it straight up as a fresh fruit salad.
Add cinnamon sugar dusted tortilla chips or pita chips and dive in salsa-style.
Top grilled fish or chicken for a sweet and savory flavor combo, perfect for a Summer dinner al fresco.
It’s also fantastic as a topping for yogurt bowls with creamy plain or vanilla yogurt and your favorite crunchy granola!
Homemade Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips
- 2 pitas
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 2 tsp sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice each pita into 8 wedges.
In a small bowl, whisk together melted coconut oil, sugar, and cinnamon. Brush onto each pita wedge and bake for 10-12 minutes on parchment paper lined baking sheet until nice and crispy. Allow to cool before serving as chips will crisp up more as they cool on the baking sheet. Enjoy!

I kept things simple, but feel free to add fresh blueberries to the mix if you have some handy! Kiwi would also be a tasty addition as would diced mango. YUM!
