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.

Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee Layer Cake

Yet another Katie recipe, and Williams-Sonoma recipe that didn't fail. I adapted two recipes to create a beatuiful cake for the first of my sister-in-laws bridal showers over the weekend. While I had some issues with the filling spilling over everything went well (once I found a good recipe for buttercream frosting that is!) I knew that there would be one cake at the shower that would be chocolate glaore and then another dessert so I wanted to make sure there was something non-chocolate for the freaks like me that aren't huge fans. This cake was amazing - Vanilla Bean Cake with a creme brulee custard filling and a buttercream frosting. ** I tried my hardest on decorating the cake - this is the first cake I've actually decorated, normally I've just made a sheet cake and just frost the top! Please don't make fun of it!!** Vanilla Bean Cake Adapted from: Good Things Catered Ingredients : 2 c. plus 2 Tbsp cake flour 1 c. milk, room temperature 6 large egg white

Key Lime Gooey Butter Cake

I'm from St. Louis.  The home of Gooey Butter Cake.  Many people think it's a Paula Deen creation, and how could you not when you see how much butter is in it, but you can't go in to a restaurant, bakery or grocery store without seeing gooey butter somewhere in St. Louis.  We love it.  What's not to love with butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, oh my! But, considering I've made it numerous times, I'm always up for a new variation.  Nutella?   Check !  Cookies?  Don't mind if I do !  Pumpkin?  Well of course !  While talking to my mom about what to bring to a family function, she mentioned she saw a recipe for key lime gooey butter cake.  Sold!  I've never heard of the website she sent over to me, but it looked similar to the basics of every other recipe I've used for Gooey Butter Cake so I knew I wanted to give it a try! One thing people may not realize is that Gooey Butter Cake is very easy to make.  Just a few ingredients really!  Just mix

St. Louis Style Pizza (Thin and Crusty Pizza)

Pizza crust is a very personal thing.  Thin, thick, pan, deep-dish, etc.  You love what you love.  I'm a St. Louisan - I love THIN crust pizza.  Like, cracker thin!  I've tried a few different thin crust recipes , and since they're pizza they're enjoyable, but when I saw this recipe on Cook's Country while watching some old videos I knew I needed to try it immediately.  Made it a few days later and it was fantastic.  This is definitely my new go-to cracker thin pizza crust recipe. What I loved best about this recipe is that it was so simple.  A handful of ingredients, no advance prep needed, no unique ingredients, simple.  Literally anyone that can combine a few ingredients together could make this recipe.  And because you don't need to prep it in advance, you could make the dough, sauce, top it and bake the pizza on many given weeknights!  A huge win for our house!
