Peach season is drawing to a close, but I was able to squeeze in one last fresh peach recipe from my fresh-from-the-farm peaches, and there are no regrets here. A little bit of coconut sugar in the rub assures caramelization on the grill, which makes this melt in your mouth healthy salmon a delight on its own. Top it with the incredibleness of fresh peach salsa and it takes WOW! to WOWIE! I know you’re going to love this Chili-Rubbed Salmon with Peach Salsa.

We used Wild Wonders multicolored grape tomatoes in our test, which added a fantastic array of color to the salsa.
