Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Chips



Most people like fruit, but get in a rut in terms of how they snack on fruit.  I admit that I do, and it gets boring to just eat slices of melon, pop grapes, bite in to an apple, etc. Making a fruit salsa is a fantastic and fun way to snack on fruit. You can use pretty much any fruit you want based on your preferences or what's in season / looks good at the market.

And, every salsa needs a chip counterpart, right?  Cinnamon tortilla chips are the perfect companion to a fruit salsa, and so easy to make!

My favorite thing about this recipe is how adaptable it is.  The strawberries at the market looking a little like a hot mess - use raspberries instead.  You forgot to buy apples but have peaches?  Go for it!  This salsa is amazingly easy to assemble, and really the only time consuming part is chopping the fruit, but you'd be doing that if you were snacking on plain fruit anyway, right?!

Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon Chips
Ingredients:
2 Kiwis, peeled and diced
2 apples - peeled, cored and diced
8 oz. blueberries
1 lb. strawberries, hulled and chopped
2-3 tablespoons fruit preserves, any flavor
10 (10 inch) flour tortillas
4 Tablespoons butter, melted
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon

Directions:
In a large bowl, thoroughly mix kiwis, apples, berries and preserves.  Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Mix cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl.

Using a pastry brush, coat one side of each tortilla with a thin layer of melted butter.  Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture and lightly press in to butter and tortillas.  Cut in to wedges and arrange in a single layer on a large baking sheet.

Bake in preheated oven 8-10 minutes.  Repeat with any remaining tortilla wedges.  Allow to cool and serve with chilled fruit mixture.

The Best Vanilla Cupcake Recipe

A fabulous vanilla cupcake recipe is something everyone needs. EVERY.ONE. Not just bakers. Not just parents that host a lot of kid parties. Everyone. I've tried several, and many have been phenomenal. Then I tried Amy Sedaris's after finding the recipe online, and it was above and beyond the best vanilla cupcake I've ever made. It was an easy batter to make, baked up beautifully, and most importantly - tasted amazing. Regardless if you have never made vanilla cupcakes and need a recipe to start with, or even if you think you have the best - give this one a shot. You will not be disappointed! Vanilla Cupcakes Ingredients: 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature 1 1/2 cups sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 1/2 cups flour 1 1/4 cups milk Directions: - Preheat oven to 375 degrees. - Mix butter at medium speed until smooth. Mix in sugar until well blended. - Add eggs, mixing until fully

Slow Cooker or Pressure Cooker Beef Chili

I don't experiment much with chili because it rarely goes well for me and my family. I've slowly adapted my chili recipe over the years, but I've still always used canned chili beans, with a flavored sauce. I've been wanting to try regular beans (whether canned or dried, I wasn't discerning, just didn't want the sauce), so off to the Googles I went rather than trying to recreate the spice blend from my normal canned beans. Because I was originally planning to make chili in the Instant Pot, that's where I focused my search. Thankfully the recipe I decided to try was adapted from a Slow Cooker recipe, because life got in my way and I wasn't able to make the chili the night before as planned, and I wouldn't have had time to use the pressure cooker with my schedule that day. What drew me to this recipe was the simplicity of the ingredients. And lack of jalapeno. Because somehow nearly every time I plan chili I forget to buy a jalapeno, even if it

White Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse Filling

OK, so, while this recipe was the result of me literally quick thinking at the grocery store rushing around to pick up a few ingredients over Easter weekend, I came up with a fantastic cake filling, in my humble opinion.  I love the cake fillings at Costco and wanted to make a variation on that.  This is really semi-homemade but oh so good!  It's rich, creamy and decadent.  Even my husband loved it, and he's not really a cake fan.  It was so easy to make too! White Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse Filling Ingredients: 1 package Jello Pudding - Cheesecake flavor 1 8-oz. container Whipped Cream Cheese, softened 1 8-oz, container Cool Whip, thawed 3 oz. White Chocolate, melted 1 teaspoon vanilla Directions: Beat softened cream cheese and vanilla with mixer until well blended and light (a few minutes). Beat in pudding mix until fully incorporated. Stir in melted white chocolate. Fold in thawed Cool Whip Allow to set in fridge for a few hours, but don't let it get
