Description

This vibrant and refreshing Strawberry Mango Salsa pairs perfectly with homemade Cinnamon-Sugar Tortilla Chips for a delightful sweet and tangy snack or appetizer. The salsa combines fresh strawberries, mangoes, kiwi, jalapeno, and cilantro for a burst of fruity and spicy flavors, balanced with lime juice and a touch of sugar. The crispy baked tortilla chips are coated with a cinnamon-sugar blend, making them the ideal crunchy complement for the fresh salsa.


Ingredients

Salsa Ingredients

  • 1 pint (16 oz.) strawberries, diced
  • 2 large mangoes, diced
  • 4 kiwi fruit, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 jalapeno, seeded and minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar

Cinnamon-Sugar Tortilla Chips Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 flour tortillas
  • Nonstick cooking spray


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit Salsa: Dice the strawberries, mangoes, and kiwi into small, evenly sized pieces. In a medium bowl, combine the diced fruit with the minced jalapeno, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and granulated sugar. Stir gently until all ingredients are well incorporated. Set aside to allow flavors to meld while you prepare the chips.
  2. Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar with ground cinnamon until well blended.
  3. Prepare the Tortilla Chips: Lightly spray both sides of each flour tortilla with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle both sides generously with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut each tortilla into eight equal triangles to form chips.
  4. Bake the Chips: Arrange the tortilla wedges in a single layer on two large baking sheets lined with parchment paper or silicone mats. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the chips are crisp and lightly browned around the edges. Remove from oven and transfer the chips to a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. Serve: Once the chips are cool and crunchy, serve alongside the fresh strawberry mango salsa for dipping. Enjoy this sweet and tangy snack immediately!

Notes

  • You can adjust the amount of jalapeno to suit your preferred spice level.
  • Ensure the chips are cooled completely to maintain crispiness before serving.
  • For added zest, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lime juice over the salsa just before serving.
  • These chips can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days but are best enjoyed fresh.
  • To make this dish vegan and vegetarian friendly, use flour tortillas that contain no animal products.
