Instructions for Fruit Salsa
- Peel apples and kiwis and dice all fruits
- Combine all diced fruit into a bowl
- Add in the white sugar, brown sugar, and lemon juice
- Stir until well mixed
- Let chill in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes
Tip: It’s best to make the salsa the same day you’ll be eating it so the fruit doesn’t begin browning and turn mushy.
Instructions for Cinnamon Tortilla Chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Place parchment paper on a baking sheet
- Cover with a single layer of chips (or cut flour tortillas)
- Spray cooking spray or brush melted butter across one side of the chips (or tortillas)
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle across chips (It helps to use a container with a lid to shake up the cinnamon and sugar so that it’s mixed well)
- Bake in the oven for about 8-10 minutes then let chips cool for 1-2 minutes
- Final Step: Enjoy!
