How to Make

  • FOR PEACH SALSA

  • Step 1: Gather, prep and weigh all ingredients.

  • Step 2: Start by placing the diced peaches, and everything else in a medium sized mixing bowl.

  • Step 3: Using a spoon or spatula fold all the ingredients together.

  • Step 4: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let the peach salsa sit out at room temperature for a couple of hours, this will let all the juices, spices and herbs bloom within the salsa.

  • Step 5: Finally taste. Adjust seasonings in salsa if need be.

  • Step 6: Cover salsa and store in fridge till use.

  • FOR SPICY PEPITAS

  • Step 7: Gather and weigh all ingredients.

  • Step 8: Place everything in a small mixing bowl.

  • Step 9: Mix pepitas very well.

  • Step 10: Place the mixture on a small sheet tray and place in a 300 F oven for 8-10 minutes

  • Step 11: Let the pepitas cool down.

  • Step 12: Store away till use.

  • FOR GUACAMOLE

  • Step 13: Gather, prep and weigh all ingredients.

  • Step 14: Start by placing the avocado, chopped onion and the rest of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

  • Step 15: Using the back side of a fork, push down and break up the avocado into small pieces.

  • Step 16: Once the avocado is pretty much broken up, use a spatula to fold everything together making sure is it well mixed.

  • Step 17: Taste, for seasonings. If you need or want more salt, and lime juice this would be the time to adjust. If adjusted make sure it is incorporated very well.

  • Step 18: Store in a container or bowl and cover with plastic wrap till use. Note: make this the last part you make right before serving because avocado browns quickly.

  • Step 21: And crush the spicy pumpkin seeds over the entire dish.
