Good Morning!! I hope you all had a fabulous 4th of July weekend! We went non-stop from Saturday until last night! It was a crazy, fun weekend that involved lots of time swimming, hanging with friends and, of course, lots of food!
Last night we were headed to grill with some friends and I just needed to bring something to snack on. I decided to bring fruit salsa with homemade cinnamon sugar chips!
For the salsa, I just cut up a bunch of fruit that I had in the fridge. I used strawberries, blueberries, two plums and two peaches. I usually like to add raspberries and blackberries, but I didn’t have any!
After everything is cut up I add a bit of cinnamon and the juice of one lime. Mix and let it sit for a while! The flavors mix together and it’s AWESOME!!! I don’t have an exact cinnamon measurement….I don’t like the flavor to be overpowering, so I just do a few shakes. If you like more cinnamon, then add more!
For the chips, I brush tortillas lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. I then cut the tortillas into triangles and bake at 425 until they are finished!
These are so easy! And a great treat for kids too! They go crazy for these!
This is always a hit with people and it’s so easy to make! Just make sure you don’t forget about your chips…I’ve been known to burn a few in my day! My sister will confirm the fact that you need to watch them! It’s kind of easy to forget about them! :)
We are headed out to the pool this afternoon. I think I’m just going to move in there for the summer! Then back home for dinner and a work out. I have to say…Insanity is awesome, but holy cow, it’s quite the workout. I can’t remember a time lately that I’ve gotten such a workout! Hopefully we’ll see some good results at the end of the program!
Have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
One of my coworkers took a cooking class and made a similar salsa and tortilla chips, it was oh so good! Thanks for reminding me of such an awesome recipe, and that I must make it this summer!
I’d like to move into the pool for summer too…Wouldnt that be glorious
Mmmm that fruit salsa looks delicious. Its like a fruit salad, but so much more fun.
I seriously need to find a friend with a pool…or just live at the beach!
I’ve never made a fruit salsa before. I’ve always wanted to but love the heat from regular salsa.
I love making my own chips like that. So much healthier and less expensive. That fruit salsa looks pretty darn tasty, too!! I think I might just have to make it. Perfect way to use up all these berries I have in my fridge!
Had to be the hit of the party!
Fruit salsa! What a great idea! Love the idea of the cinnamon chips too!
This is one of my favorite eats!
And, you are correct, those little chips are darned near impossible to remember to take out of the oven.
Love those chips! Such a quick and easy snack. It would be delish with this fruit salsa, yum!
I love making fruit salsas
so fun… and easy! Especially on top of grilled meats.
Hey Chica – hope you had a great weekend!
