Making the Perfect Fruit Salsa

To ensure your fruit salsa is bright and refreshing, use a combination of seasonal favorites like strawberries, kiwi, apples, and mango. Adding a touch of lemon or lime juice not only preserves the color but also enhances the overall flavor profile. Dice all ingredients uniformly for the best texture, and let the salsa sit briefly for the flavors to meld.

Easy Homemade Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Chips

For the chips, brush flour tortillas lightly with melted butter, sprinkle generously with a cinnamon-sugar mixture, and bake until golden and crisp. Baking (instead of frying) makes for a healthier, lighter chip without sacrificing crunch. Cut the tortillas into wedges before baking for easy and mess-free dipping.

Serving Suggestions for a Show-Stopping Presentation

Serve the fruit salsa chilled in a large bowl, surrounded by a pile of warm tortilla chips. For a beautiful presentation, garnish with fresh mint leaves or a few extra slices of vibrant fruit. This snack is a crowd-pleaser for picnics, potlucks, game nights, or as a light, refreshing dessert.

Instructions

1. Prepare the fruit salsa: In a large mixing bowl, combine strawberries, kiwi, apple, mango (or peach), and blueberries. Drizzle lemon or lime juice over the fruit and add honey or agave (if using). Stir gently until well mixed. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes for the flavors to meld.
2. Make the cinnamon sugar chips: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Brush both sides of each tortilla with melted butter, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over both sides.
4. Cut tortillas into wedges (like a pizza) and arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping chips halfway through, until golden and crispy. Allow chips to cool—they’ll crisp up further as they sit.
6. Serve: Transfer fruit salsa to a serving bowl and surround with cinnamon sugar tortilla chips. Garnish with fresh mint, if desired, and serve immediately.
