Christina's Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon-Sugar Chips

Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Chips - Our Best Bites

Choose your fruit based on color so it will be pretty.

Red: Strawberries, raspberries or pomegranate seeds could work.
Orange: Mango, peaches or nectarines.
Yellow: Pineapple, either fresh or canned.
Green: Kiwi or honeydew.
Blue: Blueberries. The original recipe also said blackberries, but I tried that and didn't like it.

If you are using any type of berries, you'll want to stir them in at the last minute so they don't dye the whole salsa.

If you want to add sweetener, you can add honey or sugar (white or brown), but I thought that the fruit with the cinnamon chips was sweet enough. You can also add extras like lime juice, coconut, mint or cinnamon. I think I added a little cinnamon and lime and I liked it.

Baked Cinnamon Chips

Flour Tortillas
Melted Butter
Cinnamon Sugar

Preheat oven to 350.

Lightly brush one side of each tortilla with melted butter. You could use cooking spray instead of butter.Then sprinkle on some cinnamon sugar.

Use a pizza cutter to cut those tortillas into wedges.

Place them on an ungreased baking sheet and bake them in the oven for about 10 minutes. You'll see them crisp up. Watch for the edges to turn up.
Remove from oven and let cool.
