Peach. Mango. Salsa. Three of my favorite summer foods.

My family and I snuck in one last trip to the beach this weekend. Nestled along the North Carolina coast, Beaufort is a quaint little fishing town with lots of restaurants. Looking for good seafood and a great view, we ate an early Saturday dinner on the porch of The Spouter Inn, watching the boats, including a “pirate” boat that kept the kids entertained for most of the meal.

My husband and I both ordered the local grouper, topped with some of summer’s finest foods… peach and mango. Thick and sweet, the fruit salsa paired beautifully with the mild grouper. The fish was served with sticky jasmine rice and sauteed veggies. The dish was delicious and colorful, just like the evening sunset and mild breeze.

TELL US: What are you favorite summer fish dishes? Please share. We’d love to hear from you!
