You're going to love this nectarine salsa because it comes together in just twenty minutes and tastes like summer in a bowl. I discovered it when I had a bunch of beautiful nectarines that needed using up, and now I make it constantly. The fresh fruit pairs beautifully with tangy balsamic vinegar and a hint of cilantro for something that feels fancy but requires zero cooking skills. Nectarines are packed with vitamin C and fiber, so you're getting a nutritious condiment that works equally well with grilled chicken, fish, or even as a topping for vanilla ice cream if you're feeling adventurous. Best of all, it costs just a few dollars to pull together from ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.
