Well if you're from Canada then you can thank a little groundhog named Wiarton Willie today because he didn't see his shadow and we can expect an early spring. I don't know about you but I'm pretty excited about the fact that we might be seeing a lot more of Mr. Sun. Sunshine means flowers, and enjoyable dog walks (when I'm not freezing my butt off and cursing the fact that those mutts need some exercise....exercise? what's that? I'm in hibernation until spring!) softball season and spring means that summer is right around the corner.
In honour of the fact that we are (hopefully!!) going to have an early spring I have a recipe here for you that is sunshiny and perfect for a beautiful spring day.
Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon Chips
2 or 3 kiwis, peeled and diced
2 Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored, and diced
1 cup of raspberries
1 pound of strawberries (cut in half or quarters)
2 tbsp white sugar
1 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp fruit preserve (or I have used honey in a pinch!)
10 flour tortillas
1/4 cup melted butter
2 tbsp cinnamon sugar
In a large bowl, mix kiwis, apples, raspberries, strawberries, sugars, and fruit preserves. Cover and chill at least 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350. Brush one side of each flour tortilla with butter. Cut into wedges and sprinkle with desired amount of cinnamon sugar. Bake in preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes (and repeat until all tortillas are baked). Allow to cool and serve with the fruit mixture.
There you have it, super easy fruit salsa. Yummy and sure to impress if you're bringing it to a party or the in laws! Enjoy the sunshine out there :)
