Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon Chips

From the ward newsletter. This is a healthy and delicious dessert idea.

2 kiwis, peeled and diced
2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced
1 lb fresh strawberries, diced
1 8-oz pkg. frozen raspberries, thawed (I used blueberries and they were perfect!)
2 T granulated sugar
1 T brown sugar
3 T fruit preserves, any flavor

In a large bowl, mix kiwis, apples, strawberries, raspberries, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and fruit preserves. Cover and chill for at least 20 minutes.

Cinnamon Chips
10 10-inch flour tortillas
Vegetable oil for frying
2 C cinnamon-sugar mixture to taste

Cut tortillas into strips or triangles. Heat oil in frying pan. Drop tortilla strips into hot oil a few at a time. When golden brown, remove and immediately drop into cinnamon-sugar mixture. Coat chips with mixture, then place on paper towels. Allow chips to cool. Serve with fruit salsa.

Berry sauce

I love this on vanilla yogurt with a sprinkle of granola for breakfast or a snack. Also great on french toast, waffles and ice cream. So good!


2 cups frozen berries (Costco mixed are good)
or 1 pint fresh strawberries
3 T sugar
1 T cornstarch
1/4 C water
1 T lemon juice

Mash berries; set aside. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in berries; remove from the heat. Stir in lemon jiuce. Transfer to a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until chilled
