For their nacho bar they shopped at a Mexican grocer & bought authentically seasoned & cooked shredded beef & pork with toppings like fresh guacamole, tomatoes & lettuce. It was simple & delicious. I wasn't quite sure what to bring, & then it hit me that we might want a little sweet to go with our savory.
I've been making fruit salsa for years from a recipe that I found in the classic cookbook from Better Homes & Gardens. I didn't stray too much from the original recipe, other then making half of the chips with Stevia instead of sugar, swapped the butter for coconut oil & I added whatever fruit we had in the fridge.
Recipe:
Serves 12 (8 chips & 1/2 cup salsa)
Salsa-
- 1 cup Strawberries, finely chopped
- 1 medium Orange, peeled & finely chopped
- 2 Kiwi, peeled & finely chopped
- 1/2 cup Raspberries, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup Blueberries, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup Yellow Bell Pepper, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 12 Flour Tortillas
- 3 tablespoons Coconut Oil
- Cinnamon
- Stevia in the Raw
- Combine all ingredients for salsa. Cover & refrigerate for 6-24 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 & melt coconut oil in a bowl.
- Brush coconut oil on each tortilla & cut into 8 wedges.
- Place wedges on baking sheet in a single layer & sprinkle with cinnamon & stevia.
- Bake for 10 minutes & repeat with remaining wedges.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 weeks.
- Enjoy chips with salsa!
This is a tasty & healthy snack that everyone enjoys. The recipe make a lot of salsa, but I just added the rest into my smoothies once we ran out of chips!
