Barbecue Black Bean Tacos with Peach Salsa by Alison's AllspiceThis month, the recipe redux asked us for our favorite healthy recipe celebrating stone fruits!  Peaches are actually my second favorite stone fruit, behind cherries, and I love them in these barbecue black bean tacos with peach salsa!

Peaches pair perfectly with other fresh salsa ingredients, like acidic tomatoes, and bright cilantro.  Their sweetness really helps to balance the salsa, which is the star of this dish!

Have you ever tried peaches with barbecue sauce?  They are a truly awesome match!  Peaches are pretty sweet, and barbecue sauce can be too.  Try using a sauce that itsn’t very sweet or your taco will be a sugar bomb!

Variations to the Barbecue Black Bean Tacos with Peach Salsa recipe:

  1. Make it spicy!  Try mixing a minced chipotle pepper into the black beans, or use a chipotle barbecue sauce!
  2. For the tomato, I used cherry tomatoes because they are growing in my garden.  A small roma tomato works very well also!
  3. Recipes to use up the cilantro:
    1. Cilantro tomato jalapeno pizza
    2. Burmese pickled ginger and fried garlic salad
    3. Cilantro lime black bean salad
    4. Plantain black bean rice bowls with cilantro pesto
    5. Grilled polenta with tomato cilantro relish
